LEGAL PROFESSION ACT 2007 - SECT 104

Peremptory removal of local lawyer's name from local roll following removal in another jurisdiction

(1)  This section applies if the Registrar is satisfied that –
(a) a local lawyer's name has been removed from an interstate roll; and
(b) no order referred to in section 108(1)(a) (Order for non-removal of name or non-cancellation of local practising certificate) is, at the time of that removal, in force in relation to it.
(2)  The Registrar must remove the lawyer's name from the local roll.
(3)  The Registrar may, but need not, give the lawyer notice of the date on which the Registrar proposes to remove the name from the local roll.
(4)  The Registrar must, as soon as practicable, give the former local lawyer notice of the removal of the name from the local roll, unless notice of the date of the proposed removal was previously given.
(5)  The name of the former local lawyer is, on his or her application to the Registrar or on the Registrar's own initiative, to be restored to the local roll if the name is restored to the interstate roll.
(6)  Nothing in this section prevents the former local lawyer from afterwards applying for admission under Part 2.2 (Admission of local lawyers).
