What is the test for judicial review of the integrity of a public official or his performance in office?

"What is at issue here is not the integrity of a public official or his performance in office, but rather the process or procedure to be employed in charging and judging him. To be deplored, and avoided in the absence of a clear grant of legislative authority, is not public criticism of officials, but criticism contained in a court report which, while it carries, at least, the aura of a judicial pronouncement, denies to the persons involved any of those safeguards designed to protect against the violation of cherished individual rights." (Matter of Wood v. Hughes, supra, 9 N.Y.2d at p. 156, 212 N.Y.S.2d 33, 173 N.E.2d 21.)
