Findings — machine-extracted (anthropic-batch:claude-opus-4-8); verify against the decision

Following a Regulatory Settlement Agreement signed on 6 September 2018, the SRA applied under Rule 11(4)(a) for consent to withdraw the allegations in the Rule 5 Statement. Under the RSA the Respondent agreed to voluntarily remove her name from the Roll of Solicitors, not to apply for restoration for four years (with restoration supported by consultant psychiatrist evidence), and to disclose the RSA to any prospective legal-services employer for four years. Given the Respondent's serious mental health issues preventing her appearance for years and the protective terms of the RSA, the Tribunal consented to withdrawal. No findings on the merits were made and no dishonesty was found.

Mitigating factors:

• Respondent had significant mental health issues and was engaged in a long course of treatment
• Respondent unable to appear before the Tribunal for some years
