Apsion v The Bar Standards Board

Held

Dismissing the appeal; the charges had been made out to the requisite standard of proof and the Tribunal could not be criticised for reaching the decision it did on sentence. Article 10 of the ECHR did not allow a barrister to make assertions in a draft defence that were wholly improper, prejudicial to the administration of justice and likely to bring the profession into disrepute.
