   ...funds only for the purpose for which they were given, and did not deal with them as client funds in accordance with the Code. [4] Ms Tangilanu was also dishonest and misleading. She dishonestly told Mr Williamson (Mr Hakaumotu’s representative) an application had been lodged, and that a fee of $750 had been paid to Immigration New Zealand. In fact, she knew no such fee had been paid, as no application was lodged. She made the dishonest representation with the intention of misappropri...

   ...that reflects the range of penalties. In Hakaoro v R [2014] NZCA 310 the Court of Appeal dealt with an appeal against a sentence of one year and eight months imprisonment on charges under the Act.
