Law clerk banned over monetary theft

In a decision yet to be released, The Administrative Decisions Tribunal on Tuesday (2 April) agreed to an application lodged by the Law Society of NSW to ban law clerk Dimitrovski from rejoining the legal profession, as reported in Lawyers Weekly.

Dimitrovski, who was an accounts clerk with Jones Day between July 2010 and July 2011, pleaded guilty to six charges of dishonestly obtaining financial advantage by deception and was sentenced to nine months’ imprisonment. She was released in 2012 after serving six months.

A Jones Day spokesperson confirmed that Dimitrovski altered cheques so they could be deposited into a business account belonging to her husband.
