Reasons/basis

Background

A section 43 Order was made against Kevin Edwin Francis Gregory on 12 June 2006 following findings by the Tribunal relating to his conduct while connected with Mahoney Mea Solicitors.

The Tribunal found that Mr Gregory had represented himself as a solicitor, trainee solicitor or 'acting solicitor' when he was not qualified to do so and had pursued a claim for costs that he knew, or ought to have known, could not be justified. Although the Tribunal found the allegations proved, it made no finding of dishonesty.

The Tribunal concluded that, taken together, the misconduct justified a section 43 order to protect the public and maintain confidence in the solicitors' profession

SDT’s First Instance Decision – 12 June 2006

The Tribunal ordered that, with effect from 16 June 2006, no solicitor, Registered European Lawyer or incorporated solicitor's practice should employ or remunerate Kevin Edwin Francis Gregory in connection with legal practice without the prior written permission of the Law Society (now the SRA). Any such permission could be granted for a specified period and subject to conditions.
