THE strife-torn Law Society of Scotland has been left in constitutional limbo after a stormy annual meeting.
A summit at the Marriott Hotel in Glasgow yesterday saw a motion to rescind the existing constitution defeated by a vote of 820 for and 743 against.
A minimum of two-thirds of members (1042) were required to vote in favour for the motion to be passed.
