Sophia Cannon

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

A Disciplinary Tribunal heard charges against Sophia Cannon across two sets of proceedings (PC2015/0304/D5 and PC2017/0068/D3). The respondent applied to adjourn, citing the effects of an assault she said she suffered in May, an injury to her hand, and psychiatric evidence from Dr A. The Tribunal proceeded in her absence under rE183/rE184; she was neither present nor represented while the BSB remained neutral on the adjournment. Charges were found proved by unanimous decision, including professional misconduct contrary to Core Duty 5 and rC8, pursuing wholly unmeritorious applications, and conduct in litigation. The Tribunal made no express finding of dishonesty in the extract provided.

Duties found breached:

• Proper basis for allegations
• No conflict between current clients
• No baseless or threatened misconduct report
