Peter Gray, the partner who was suspended from Gibson Dunn & Crutcher after a ruling he deliberately misled the High Court, has left the firm.

Gibson Dunn confirmed today that former Dubai partner Gray "is no longer employed" at the firm following a period of suspension.

In March Gray was found to have knowingly submitted incorrectly dated evidence in a case between the Republic of Djibouti and one of its wealthiest citizens, Abdourahman Boreh.

Boreh had been convicted of terrorism for his involvement in a 2009 terrorist attack, in part because of the evidence Gray had submitted.

Today a Gibson Dunn spokesperson said: "As a law firm, we place the highest value on ethical conduct, including honesty, integrity and candour."

She added that Gibson Dunn would "continue to represent the government of Djibouti in pursuing its claims".

Gray is currently mounting a challenge to the March ruling in the Court of Appeal after a High Court judge denied his initial application to appeal the decision. No date for the hearing has yet been set.

Gray declined to comment.
