Victim of Formality

The Law Society of British Columbia
In the matter of the Legal Profession Act, SBC 1998, c.9
and a hearing concerning

Dean Thomas

Respondent

Decision of the Hearing Panel
on Facts, Verdict and Penalty

Under the Act this panel did convene
to rule whether your conduct can be found
unbecoming—if so, can we be mean?

When called, your principles you should have stowed
in favour of your duty to be square.

Dissent does not befit the bourgeoisie.

It’s not just jobs but benchers who will treat
your drunken Facebook pics too indiscreet
