The appellant, a disbarred lawyer, appealed an injunction restraining him from the unauthorized practice of law.
The Law Society alleged he acted as a lawyer by advising a landlord on a commercial lease renewal and advising property owners in a boundary line dispute.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, finding that the appellant's conduct went beyond mere negotiation and involved giving legal advice on questions of law, which constitutes practising law contrary to s. 50(1) of the Law Society Act.
