Reasons/basis

This notification relates to a Decision to prosecute before the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal. This is an independent Tribunal which will reach its own decision after considering all the evidence, including any evidence put forward by the Solicitor. The Tribunal has certified that there is a case to answer in respect of allegations which are or include:-

Misleading two firms where she worked as a locum, by submitting timesheets and claiming payment for the same hours on the same dates from both firms, while also employed to work full time by a third law firm;

Misleading her employer that she was working for them full time, and solely for them, while working two other roles as a locum during her period of employment.

The allegations are subject to a Hearing before the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal and are as yet unproven.
