[guest]

TORONTO — An Ottawa lawyer with a lengthy disciplinary record is facing another set of misconduct allegations before her profession’s governing body. Mireille Landry, a former local school board trustee, is accused in a Law Society of Upper Canada notice of hearing of lying to clients, failing to prepare them for a hearing and making a “unilateral” decision not to appeal an order against her clients forcing them to pay $32,500 in costs. She is also accused of failing to account for $3,000 paid to her by the same two clients, and of failing to reply to both a fellow lawyer and the Law Society of Upper Canada in a timely manner.
