This case has been cited 4 times or more.

	AM No. CA-15-31-P 2015-06-16	COMMITTEE ON SECURITY v. REYNALDO V. DIANCO - CHIEF SECURITY PER CURIAM
In a long line of cases, dishonesty has been defined as the disposition to lie, cheat, deceive or defraud; untrustworthiness; lack of integrity; lack of honesty, probity or integrity in principle; lack of fairness and straightforwardness; disposition to defraud, deceive or betray.[55] Although dishonesty covers a broad spectrum of conduct, Civil Service Commission (CSC) Resolution No. 06-0538[56] set the criteria for determining the severity of dishonest acts.
	AM No. P-08-2549 2010-06-18	ANONYMOUS v. EMMA BALDONADO CURAMEN CARPIO, J.
Dishonesty, in order to warrant dismissal, need not be committed in the course of the performance of official duties.[15] If a government officer is dishonest, even if the conduct is not connected with the official function, it affects the discipline and morale of the service.[16] The government cannot tolerate in its service a dishonest employee, even if official duties are performed well. Respondent cannot separate her private life as a registrant of the child's false birth certificate from her public life as a court official. She is subject to discipline the moment she commits a dishonest act, whether in her private life or in her public life.
	AM No. P-05-2100 2007-12-27	A VERY CONCERNED EMPLOYEE v. LOURDES S. DE MATEO PER CURIAM
Coming now to the imposable penalty, we agree that falsification of daily time records is patent dishonesty. [17] Dishonesty is "(d)isposition to lie, cheat, deceive, or defraud; untrustworthiness; lack of integrity; lack of honesty, probity or integrity in principle; lack of fairness and straightforwardness; disposition to defraud, deceive or betray." [18] Dishonesty, being a grave offense, carries the extreme penalty of dismissal from the service with forfeiture of retirement benefits except accrued leave credits, and with perpetual disqualification from re-employment in government service. [19] Indeed, dishonesty is a malevolent act that has no place in the Judiciary. [20] Finding that the respondent offered no satisfactory explanation concerning the charges of dishonesty against her, and absent any circumstance to mitigate the imposable penalty, the Court finds the OCA recommendation of her dismissal appropriate.
	AM NO. 05-5-268-RTC 2006-05-04	RE: SPURIOUS CERTIFICATE OF ELIGIBILITY OF TESSIE G. QUIRES PER CURIAM
Intentionally making a false statement in any material fact, or practicing or attempting to practice any deception or fraud in securing his examination, registration, appointment or promotion. It is also understood to imply a disposition to lie, cheat, deceive, or defraud; untrustworthiness; lack of integrity; lack of honesty, probity or integrity in principle; lack of fairness and straightforwardness; disposition to defraud, deceive or betray.[25]
