Attorney Jacqueline Minto was retained in 2016 to administer the intestate estate of the complainant's parents, comprising two properties, and to sell the assets once Letters of Administration were obtained. After obtaining the Grant in 2018, the attorney failed to act on a purchaser identified by the complainant, causing the complainant to lose two sales, and never returned the Hart Street title. The Committee found her guilty of professional misconduct, in breach of Canons IV(r), VII(ii) and I(b), and fined her J$200,000 payable to the complainant plus J$140,000 costs.
