Intervention in the Groia Appeal before the Law Society of Upper Canada Appeal Panel
The Advocates’ Society has been granted leave to intervene in the Groia matter and has now filed its factum with the Appeal Panel at the Law Society of Upper Canada. The Society sought leave to intervene in the appeal because the reasons for decision of the Hearing Panel which convicted Mr. Groia of professional misconduct raise important issues regarding professionalism and civility and regarding the discipline process.
