Black lawyers association says teffo lacks sense of integrity removal from roll was warranted
It appears that the Black Lawyers Association (BLA) has made a statement regarding the removal of Advocate Teffo from the roll of advocates in South Africa.
According to the BLA, they believe that Advocate Teffo's removal was warranted due to his lack of integrity. This statement suggests that the BLA has concerns about Advocate Teffo's professional conduct and ethics, and that they support the decision to remove him from the roll of advocates.
It's worth noting that the removal of an advocate from the roll is a serious matter, and it's typically only done after a thorough investigation and a finding of misconduct or other serious breaches of professional standards. The BLA's statement may be seen as a reflection of their confidence in the process that led to Advocate Teffo's removal.
However, it's also important to remember that Advocate Teffo has denied any wrongdoing and has expressed his intention to appeal the decision. The matter is likely to be subject to further legal proceedings and public debate.
In any case, the BLA's statement highlights the importance of maintaining high standards of integrity and professionalism within the legal profession. It's essential for lawyers to uphold the highest ethical standards, and any breaches of those standards can have serious consequences for the profession as a whole.
