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 that, in the period 31 March 2018 to 18 April 2019, he was director (sole director between 31 March 2018 and 1 September 2018 and the owner of 50% of the shares from around 1 November 2018) of Global Security Trustees Limited , whose role was to act as security trustee protecting the interests of bondholders, notwithstanding an obvious conflict in doing so (or significant risk thereof) given his previous and subsequent instructions as a partner in Buss Murton Law LLP for the lender.
The allegations are subject to a Hearing before the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal and are as yet unproven.
