Lim, 59, an opposition politician, is accused of practising law without authorisation during that period.
He is contesting three charges for allegedly contravening the Legal Profession Act.

Generally, it can range from a few thousand dollars to tens of thousands per lawyer annually.

How can a professional who requires a license to practise his trade disqualify himself by willfully not renewing or paying for a license? That's why i suspect he's a mole.

On Dec 27, Ms Rejini Raman, a former assistant director at the compliance department of the Law Society who had communicated with Lim during that time, took the stand during his trial.
Referring to a WhatsApp exchange between Lim and Ms Rejini, Lim’s lawyer Mr Patrick Fernandez, told Ms Rejini she had emboldened him to go to court without a practising certificate.
Mr Fernandez had taken over as Lim’s lawyer from Mr Foo Ho Chew, who had in turn replaced Mr Sankar Saminathan in August.
The exchange Mr Fernandez was referring to occurred on March 31, 2021, in which Lim had asked Ms Rejini for an ad hoc waiver of his continuing professional development requirements.
Lim had asked Ms Rejini if he could appear in court in the meantime. And she had replied that he could and to let the judge know he was waiting for the waiver approval, before submitting the practising certificate approval for the new practice year.
In court, Ms Rejini said she did not know Lim had not paid his professional indemnity insurance until on or around May 11, 2021.
She said the Law Society does not have powers to grant exemption for lawyers to practise without a practising certificate.
Ms Rejini later clarified that she was trying to assist Lim and not authorise him to go to court without a practising certificate.
She added the responsibility for the practising certificate renewal was on the lawyer and not on the Law Society.
The trial continues on Dec 28.

It's because some lawyers are not earning enough to pay the insurance premium, even though the Law Society and insurers have worked out an installment plan to help these poor fucks.
Do you know that self-employed must pay Medisave to have their ACRA certificate renewed. But Law Society does NOT impose such a requirement.
If he is a sole proprietor as in he is the firm, then he pays 2 insurance premiums - one for himself and one for the firm..
