The attorney had carriage of sale for a property purchase and received a deposit of J$2,500,000. After the sale was cancelled, she issued a cheque to repay the deposit which was dishonoured by the bank, and never refunded the deposit. Hearing proceeded in her absence after proof of service. Applying the criminal standard (beyond reasonable doubt), the panel found the Canon 1(b) breach made out and the attorney guilty of professional misconduct. No express finding of dishonesty was made, and no sanction was recorded in this decision text.
