SCMP reports high-profile lawyer and legislator Paul Tse Wai-chun has been granted permission to go ahead with a judicial review of procedures followed by a disciplinary tribunal that banned him from practising law for a year.

Leave was granted by Mr Justice Andrew Cheung Kui-nung in the Court of First Instance yesterday.

Tse applied in June this year - more than a year after he had lost an appeal in the Court of Final Appeal in March last year - arguing fresh grounds over the role of a clerk. The top court upheld the finding against him by the Solicitors' Disciplinary Tribunal for posing nude in two magazines.
