Findings — machine-extracted (anthropic-batch:claude-opus-4-8); verify against the decision
Solicitor found guilty of professional misconduct by the ADT for failing to comply with a s152 Notice under the Legal Profession Act 1987 (NSW), and his name was removed from the Roll. On appeal, by consent the Court of Appeal quashed the ADT decision and restored his name to the Roll, but he undertook to cease practice, surrender his practising certificate, and never seek a practising certificate again anywhere in Australia. The underlying Information was dismissed. No express finding of dishonesty is recorded.
