Professional responsibility Self dealing is the conduct of a trustee , an Lawyer attorney , a corporate officer , or other fiduciary that consists of taking advantage of his position in a transaction and acting for his own interests rather than for the interests of the beneficiaries of the Trust law trust , corporate shareholders , or his clients. Self dealing may involve misappropriation or usurpation of asset corporate assets or Corporate opportunity opportunities . Self dealing is a form of conflict of interest . One of the more current and widely agreed on definitions is from political scientists Ken Kernaghan and John Langford in their book The Responsible Public Servant . They define self dealing as a situation where one takes an action in an official capacity which involves dealing with oneself in a private capacity and which confers a benefit on oneself. Michael McDonald, Ph.D, Chair of Applied Ethics at The University of British Columbia provides examples based from this book You work for government and use your official position to secure a contract for a private consulting company you own or using your government position to get a summer job for your daughter . Where a fiduciary has engaged in self dealing, this constitutes a breach of the fiduciary relationship. The principal of that fiduciary the person to whom duties are owed may sue and both recover the principal s lost profits and Disgorgement law disgorge the principal s wrongful profits.

Unreferenced date October 2009 Professional responsibility Commingling literally means mixing together . Used in a legal context it is a breach of trust in which a fiduciary mixes funds that he holds in the care of a client with his own funds, making it difficult to determine which funds belong to the fiduciary and which belong to the client. This raises particular concerns where the funds are invested, and gains or losses from the investments must be allocated. In such circumstances, the law usually presumes that any gains run to the client and any losses run to the fiduciary who is guilty of commingling. Commingling is particularly an issue in case of bankruptcy of the fiduciary. Funds held in care are not the fiduciary s property, and the client is not a creditor, so in case of bankruptcy, if the funds have been properly kept separate, they can easily be returned to the client. If, however, the funds have been commingled, the client is potentially subject to becoming entangled in the bankruptcy proceedings, and there may not be sufficient funds to pay the client back. Examples Tenant deposits For example, a tenant who deposits money with a landlord has not lent money to the landlord the tenant is not a creditor and is entitled to their deposit back even in case that the landlord declares bankruptcy, assuming property is in good condition the tenant is responsible for the property, but is not undertaking credit risk . Investment funds Similarly, a client who invests with a fund or broker is investing, not lending, so the fiduciary must keep the client money separate and not use it for their own purposes, but only for approved investment purposes the client is subject to investment risk on their money, but not credit risk regarding the fiduciary. Lawyers and brokers The problem of commingling is of particular concern in the legal profession. Lawyer Attorneys are strictly prohibited from commingling their clients funds with their own, and such activity is grounds fo ... more details
Norberg v. Wynrib , 1992 2 S.C.R. 226 is a leading Supreme Court of Canada decision on the fiduciary duty between doctors and patients, and on the limits of consent as a defense legal defense in sexual assault . Laura Norberg had severe pains in her jaw and frequent headaches in 1978. To remedy this problem, her sister offered her Fiorinal . After the source of her pain, an abscessed tooth, was found and treated, her addiction to painkillers remained. After breaking her ankle in 1981, she found a doctor who would prescribe Fiorinal. After this doctor retired, she sought out another who would provide the drug. Starting in 1982, she began seeing Dr. Wynrib, an elderly physician, and he began giving Norberg Fiorinal under the pretext of an ankle injury. In exchange, Wynrib demanded sexual favour s. She eventually brought an action against him for sexual assault. There are two main issues in this case. First, the sexual assault falls under the tort of Battery tort battery . Second, can the relationship between Norberg and Wynrib be characterized as fiduciary and therefore give rise to a fiduciary obligation ? The British Columbia Court of Appeal dismissed the case on the basis that she consented. The case was given leave to the Supreme Court. The Women s Legal Education and Action Fund acted as an intervener in this case. Writing for the majority, G rard La Forest La Forest J. found an award of punitive damages on behalf of Norberg, but stops short of recognizing a fiduciary duty.

Judgment The Court of Appeal, upholding the finding of the trial judge, held in favour of Mr Pyke. Sedley LJ referred to the submission by Mr Pyke s counsel that Bell v.

N.P.L. v. Cropper , 1966 S.C.R. 673, is a leading Canadian case decided by the Supreme Court of Canada on the fiduciary duty of corporate directors. The owner of a mineral claim offered to sell their claim to Peso Silver Mines Ltd. The board of directors of Peso rejected the offer. Mr. Cropper, a member of the board, purchased the claim for himself. Learning of this, Peso sued Cropper for breach of his fiduciary duty towards the company for seizing the corporate opportunity . The Court found that Cropper was not in breach of his fiduciary duty to Peso. The directors had acted in good faith and in the best interests of the company in rejecting the offer. The information that Cropper received as a board member was in no way confidential that was unavailable to any prospective purchaser. The company received offers to sell on a regular basis and the offer at issue was not different from any other. The offer was made to Cropper as a private individual and was entirely separate from his role as a director. Consequently, for all these reasons there was no breach found.
