Thanks very much for your help and time. We both had a win. I've decided as a sign of respect for your work that I will not tell any more lawyers jokes for the two years of my bond (Section 10).
The case against this client was dismissed without a conviction being recorded. Accordingly, the happy client kept their licence. The potential penalty included a fine of up to $1,100 and an automatic period of disqualification of 6 months as well as a criminal conviction.
