Suspended Roscommon solicitor Declan O'Callaghan was formally censured at the High Court after the Law Society applied over an upheld finding of misconduct tied to a 2006 Mayo land deal. Last November O'Callaghan successfully appealed three allegations of misconduct connected to the transaction, but the court sustained one count of misconduct. A disciplinary tribunal had earlier decided to strike O'Callaghan off the roll based on its findings. The High Court censure followed the Law Society's application seeking sanction for the remaining upheld misconduct finding. The matter centers on professional conduct in a property transaction and prior tribunal recommendations remain on record.
