The Church of God Seventh Day complained that Attorney Sean G.M. Osbourne, retained to purchase land at Newtown Braeton for JMD $24 million, failed to apply JMD $720,000 entrusted to him for the transaction, failed to communicate, and failed to complete the purchase. Applying the criminal standard (beyond reasonable doubt), the Panel found the complainant's witness truthful and rejected the Respondent's evidence as untrustworthy—noting he initially denied receiving the $720,000 but later admitted the funds had been credited to his account and remained in his possession. The Panel found professional misconduct proven on charges A, B, C, D and F (failure to account), but found the charge of breaching the Legal Profession (Accounts and Records) Regulations not made out. No express finding of dishonesty was recorded. The matter was adjourned for a separate sanction hearing.
