Executive summary |
The Tribunal found, on the balance of probabilities, that the Applicant had proven the factual allegations that the Respondent did not obtain an express confirmation from Karen Webb that Mrs Webb approved the amendments that had been made to her witness statement and that the Respondent did not notify the High Court that the version of the witness statement that had been submitted had not been seen or approved by Karen Webb. However, the Tribunal found that the Applicant has not proven, to the requisite standard, that the said conduct was either dishonest or reckless and/or that the said conduct amounted to a breach of either Principles 2 or 6 of the SRA Principles 2011 or a failure to achieve Outcome 5.1 of the SRA Code of Conduct.
