Innocent
Until Proven Guilty: An indictment contains allegations that a
defendant has committed a crime. Every
defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
Some
individuals or companies may have been acquitted or pardoned for the offence
alleged, may be relief defendants only, or may simply be implicated in certain
cases. Users of the DDDirectory should
ensure that they have accurately determined the reasons for inclusion and the
final outcome of an alleged offence relating to a particular individual or
company by contacting the regulatory or professional body through the link
provided in the records.
Information
contained in the DDDirectory summarizes details contained in official orders
and press releases and should not be relied upon as an originating
document. Users are cautioned to refer

or taking any action in respect of any individual or company contained in the
DDDirectory.
The
summaries provided in the DDDirectory are not intended to be complete records
of disciplinary actions. Users
researching a particular individual or company should consult the full text of
any disciplinary decision either online or contact the regulatory or

individual or company using other identifying information. OFC is not responsible for any coincidence
in names of sanctioned or disciplined individuals or companies as a result of
individuals having identical names.
