A lawyer found guilty of serious professional misconduct by a disciplinary tribunal will have to face a Court of Three Judges.
Mr Leonard Loo, 41, had undergone a probe by the tribunal on four charges, all linked to services he rendered to the management corporation of the Haig Eleven condominium.
One of the charges involved his denying that he had received a cheque for $800 when he knew it had been received, and failing to issue a receipt for it.
The crossed cheque had been made out to his firm for legal advice rendered, but the management of the condominium which hired him in May 2008 was so dissatisfied with his work that it complained about him to the Law Society just four months later.
