Has she been dropped from the judiciary?

She resigned on Monday, I suppose I'm being cynical but i guess she will have other reasons for resigning before she was sacked/disqualified. Might affect her pension payments.

Either way she will be treated as an outcast amongst a lot of people in her social circle, she will go down as a con woman and I suppose this will be some form of penalty as it should be as I think 2 1/2 years is a too little for what she did.

now they need to get onto the bankers, property developers,polititions etc who are blatantly money laundering by transfering assets to their wives etc ,then going bankrupt,and walking away scot free

Now, onto Bertie...

I don't think any custodial sentence would be a 'holiday' tbh.

Mountjoy Women's prison is notoriously cushy. But I guess it depends on your point of view. If you're used to spending your days on the scratch and getting into violent drunken rows with your partner, then a few months in Mountjoy women's prison may seem like a long holiday in a health spa.

But if you're a wealthy solicitor used to the high life, then it'll be a nightmare.

Prisoners are accommodated in seven separate houses with each house accommodating ten to twelve people except for one called Cedar which can accommodate eighteen women. The pre-release centre called Phoenix accommodates women in private rooms or in self-contained studio apartments.[2] Inmates live in en-suite rooms with keys to their rooms meaning they can move about relatively freely. Houses are locked at 7.30pm with all the women in the prison being locked into their rooms at that time except for women in Cedar and Phoenix Houses.[2] Houses and rooms are unlocked at 7.30am. Prisoners organise their own breakfasts in the kitchens of the houses and eat lunch with prison staff in the dining room with an evening meal being served in the dining room at 5pm.[2] Each house has a kitchen/dining room with sitting room facility which contains a television and reading material.

Given that she may have sentenced some of the women in the prison, she may be housed in the a private pre-release room for the entire duration of her stay. I'm going to go with six months.
