Findings — machine-extracted (anthropic-batch:claude-opus-4-8); verify against the decision
The Complainant retained the Respondent in November 1996 regarding a title dispute over premises in Greater Portmore, St. Catherine. She paid $92,700.00, of which $29,500.00 was paid to the other party in an attempt to settle. The Respondent failed to pursue an action for a declaration that the equitable interest vested solely in the Complainant. The Committee found the Respondent breached Canon IV(r) by failing to deal with her client's business with due expedition, and ordered restitution of $70,000.00 plus interest and costs of $10,000.00.
