欲當律師卻考試不合格 女生認網購千元人民幣PCLL證書 認罪候判

欲當律師卻考試不合格 女生認網購千元人民幣PCLL證書 認罪候判

聲稱一直成績不錯的女生,修讀中大法律博士(JD)時成績欠佳,為想入讀港大的專業試課程,偷偷修改成續,雖獲取錄,但考試不合格後退學。但她未放棄從事法律工作,再花約千多元人民幣在網上購得合格證書,並律師樓求職時終被揭發。女生今(5日)在區域法院認罪,更在求情信引陶淵明的名句。法官直言對案情表示驚訝,將案件押後至9月26日判刑。

女被告張家玲,又名張嘉禧(29歲),今承認5項罪名,包括:兩項使用虛假文書、1項以欺騙手段取得服務、1項以欺騙手段取得金錢及1項作出虛假法定聲明罪。

控方案情指,被告在2011年入讀中大JD課程,但她成績平均點(GPA)只得2.46,未達入讀港大法律專業證書課程(PCLL)的要求,她便偽造了中大JD的畢業成績表,把GPA改成3.46,最後獲港大該課程取錄。

惟被告讀該專業試課程,第一年考試已不合格,需要重讀,但再考後仍不合格,並需參與補考,最後她選擇自動退學。

1至2千人民幣購得合格證書

至2015年,她以偽造的港大法律專業證書,獲梁鄧蔡律師事務所聘用為見習律師,並向香港律師會提交註冊實習律師合約申請。香港律師會查閱時,發現被告並未被港大列為考試合格的學生,並將事件告知律師樓。律師樓最後將女生,她亦在被辭退當天向警方自首。

警誡下,被告承認因成績不佳,但又想入讀港大PCLL課程,便在上網將中大的成績表,上傳至另一網站更改等級。其後,又因未完成港大專業試的課程,向一個內地帳戶,並以約1000至2000人民幣,購買到虛假的的PCLL證書。

求情稱讀法律時患上抑鬱症

被告律師求情時指,被告主動投案,顯示其充分悔意,而且她成績一直良好,惟她因讀書壓力大,於就讀JD時患上抑鬱症。而是次犯案只因一時愚蠢。被告律師又呈上被告所寫的求情書,被告在求情信中引用東晉詩人陶潛的《歸去來辭》詩句:「吾以往之不諫,知來者之可追,實迷途其未遠,覺今是而昨非」,意指:明白以往的錯誤已經無法改正,未來的事情卻可以補救,以表明其心意。

被告遭律師樓辭退後,被告曾在賽馬會創意藝術中心任職,其後又獲一間投資公司聘請為財務顧問。

官指被告或剝奪他人入學機會

被告偽造文件以獲入讀PCLL和取得工作,法官坦言看到案情時都覺得十分驚訝。法官指所為是惡行,又關注被告所為會否剝奪其他人入學的機會。法官指,不會用「失敗」形容被告的讀書路,但讀法律並不適合被告,相信如她選讀其他科目,會更開心,不會落得現時因讀書而債台高築,及有精神問題的地步。據悉,被告於中文寫作科目表現良好。

法官將案件押後至9月26日判刑,以索取被告的社會服務令報告。

The Pinnohio of Pot: Expose on RAW papers CEO

 Josh Kesselman built Raw rolling papers into a $200 million brand but along the way he’s been deceitful about where and how his products are made and also told little green lies about a nonexistent charitable foundation. Inside the cannabis industry’s strangest smoke-and-mirrors show. nApril 2020, as Covid spread across the world and businesses were forced to close operations, Joshua Kesselman, the 52-year-old founder of Raw rolling papers, proudly announced that his factory in a small town in Spain was churning out paper. “Alcoy, Spain, where we make Raw paper, is still open,” Kesselman told Forbes during an interview at the time. “Alcoy is insulated; we’re up in the mountains, not down where the Covid really is in Spain. We’re one of the few real businesses in Alcoy.” There was, however, one very real problem with Kesselman’s factory in Alcoy—it didn’t exist. Amid a legal battle between Raw’s parent company, HBI International, and rolling paper rival Republic Technologies (which...

Former Naples doctor sentenced for child porn possession

 A former doctor at a since-closed Naples urology practice has been sentenced to four and a half years in prison for possessing child pornography. Nicholas Franco was sentenced after pleading no contest, said Sara Miles, a spokeswoman for Florida’s 20th Judicial Circuit. He is to enter prison in January. Franco worked at Specialists in Urology, which closed earlier this year and was owned by the financially troubled 21st Century Oncology of Fort Myers. A Collier County detective found child porn files connected with an IP address linked to Franco’s home, the Collier County Sheriff’s Office said. A laptop belonging to Franco was found with 50 child porn videos with girls ranging from 4 to 12 years old, according to CCSO. Franco and his family plan to move to Canada upon his release from prison, Miles said. If he doesn’t do so within 72 hours of release, he has to serve 15 years of sex offender probation.
