Findings — machine-extracted (anthropic-batch:claude-opus-4-8); verify against the decision
The Disciplinary Committee found attorney Dahlia Allen in breach of the Canons of Professional Ethics for failing to account to and pay over to her client sums collected on the client's behalf relating to several property transactions. Although the Panel would have ordered her struck from the roll, she had already been struck off in unrelated matters. Instead it ordered her, under section 12(4)(c) of the Legal Profession Act, to pay the complainant JMD 1,847,535.01 (net of JMD 700,000 already paid) with interest at 12% per annum from 21 September 2001, plus JMD 75,000 costs. No express finding of dishonesty was made.
