Principle 1.02 represents a legitimate and sufficiently certain limitation on solicitors' freedom of expression; the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal was entitled to find that the respondent's near-nudity protest and the circular inviting colleagues to flout an in‑camera ruling were inappropriate conduct likely to bring the profession into disrepute; the Court of Appeal upheld the SDT's findings, fines and costs order and dismissed the appeal.
