Tertiary students caught plagiarising have been subsequently denied admission as legal practitioners (or had their existing practising certificates cancelled) by State admission boards: See, eg, Legal Services Commissioner v Keough [2010] VCAT 108 (3 February 2010); Re Liveri [2006] QCA 152 (12 May 2006); Re: AJG [2004] QCA 88 (15 March 2004).
