A board member at patent attorney Murgitroyd has offloaded his second tranche of shares this month.

A stock market filing yesterday shows Kenneth Chrystie, a non-executive director, sold 1000 shares at 670p each.

Last week Mr Chrystie, who has spent much of his career at law firm McClure Naismith, netted more than £13,000 through the sale of 2000 shares.

The latest transaction from Mr Chrystie leaves him with 5500 ordinary shares in Murgitroyd.
