    authority could be issued and gross immoral conduct.
    Held: Yes
    There is no dispute that respondent engaged in an unlawful,
    dishonest and immoral conduct. The illicit relationship which
    spanned a period of five years was committed under
    scandalous circumstances as to shock the common sense of
    decency. As a Division Clerk of Court of the Court of Appeals,
    respondent occupied a position of great responsibility.
    Atty. Dabon left for theUnited States before the approval of
    his application for leave by the authorized official of the
    Personnel Division. Moreover, respondents application for
    leave did not indicate the type of leave he is taking,
    whether vacation or sick leave, or whether the leave will be
    spent here or abroad. Respondent likewise violated the
    resolution in Adm. Matter No. 99-12-08-SC requiring
    employees of the judiciary to obtain a travel authority from
    this Court before traveling abroad
