Questão jurídica principal
Whether the Federal Lawyers Act applied to the removal despite the underlying facts predating 1 June 2002.
Decisão extraída
The removal had to be assessed under the new federal and cantonal provisions in force from 1 June 2002; there was no prohibited retroactive application.
Fundamentação extraída
The duty to satisfy the personal conditions for bar registration existed when the removal decision was taken, and the prior facts only served as the basis for assessing those current conditions.
