Findings — machine-extracted (anthropic-batch:claude-opus-4-8); verify against the decision

A 5-person Disciplinary Tribunal found that Shavon Bethel engaged in dishonest conduct by falsely asserting in his 2006 Inner Temple admission application that he had been awarded a University of London degree on 5 July 2005, which was untrue, and by falsely declaring in his 2013 pre-call declaration that his admission declaration was true. He was disbarred. Decision open to appeal.
