What is the test for a proposal that falls within the range of general deterrence, rehabilitation, denunciation and denunciation?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Harding (Re), 2016 LSBC 9 (CanLII):
Our main focus in determining whether the proposal falls within this range must be on the protection of the public interest and the need to maintain the public’s confidence in the legal profession. These overarching principles are promoted by a number of subsidiary principles, including the need for specific and general deterrence, rehabilitation, punishment and denunciation (Law Society of BC v. Ogilvie, 1999 LSBC 17, paras. 9-10).
