The Disciplinary Committee of the General Legal Council of Jamaica found Attorney Loverne Annmarie George guilty of professional misconduct for receiving a refunded deposit of $2,500,000 from a cancelled sale on behalf of the complainant and failing to return it for over two years, in breach of Canon 1(b). The Committee ordered that she be struck off the Roll, make restitution of $2.5 million with interest, and pay costs of $50,000 each to the GLC and the complainant. No express finding of dishonesty was made; the breach concerned failing to maintain the honour and dignity of the profession.
