The advocate of Jenny Holt says his client is relieved to have had her convictions for money laundering and falsifying documents quashed.
Ms Holt had been found guilty of handling £400,000 which had been stolen by Trevor and Wendy Baines to cover their legal fees in their own money laundering trial.
Working as an advocate at the time, she was the junior member of the Baineses' legal team.
Richard Halsall says yesterday's decision by the Privy Council in London to quash Ms Holt's convictions was most welcome:
