The Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) has banned one of its former paralegals after he was convicted of a sexual offense against a minor in Crown Court last summer, a filing has revealed.

Christopher Walker, otherwise known as Christopher Jones, was a paralegal employed by the SRA, who last July was convicted “of two counts of attempting to cause a female aged 13 or over to engage in sexual activity” and of “and 2 counts of attempting to engage in sexual communication with a child”, according to the SRA’s filing.
