High-profile QC kicked out of disputes body

ONE of the country's most respected QCs has been expelled from a professional body after being found guilty of misconduct.

John Campbell, who was counsel to the Holyrood inquiry, was kicked out of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators (CIA) following his "inexcusable" handling of a commercial row.

The high-profile lawyer was president of the organisation at the time of his "egregious disregard of proper professional standards".
