I am also unpersuaded by the Law Society of British Columbia\rquote s point that forcing unwilling counsel to continue may create a conflict between the client\rquote s and lawyer\rquote 
s interests.  It is argued that where counsel is compelled to work for free, }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \i\f0\fs24\insrsid6778589\charrsid9588515 he or she may
 be tempted to give legal advice which will expedite the process in order to cut counsel\rquote 
s financial losses even though wrapping up a criminal matter as quickly as possible may not be in the best interests of the accused.  The argument, however, is inconsistent with the Law Society\rquote s position \endash  with which I agree \endash 
 that the court should presume that lawyers act ethically.  There are many situations where counsel\rquote s personal or professional interests may be in tension with an individual client\rquote s interest, for
 example where counsel acquires an interesting new file that requires immediate attention, or has vacation plans that conflict with the timing of court proceedings affect the client.  Counsel is obligated to be diligent, thorough and to act in the client
\rquote s
 best interest.  Similarly, if counsel agrees to be retained pro bono, he or she must act just as professional as if acting for the client on a paid retainer of the same nature.  Where the court requires counsel to continue to represent an accused, counse
l must do so competently and diligently.  Both the integrity of the profession and the administration of justice require nothing less.\'94}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \i\f0\fs24\insrsid201457\charrsid9588515

Filing a writ of summons for unpaid fees as agreed, is the prerogative and right of a lawyer.  In this case the filing of the writ in itself does not 
create any conflict of interest between the lawyers and the accused persons.  The civil case can proceed independently of the criminal case and without any obstacles to the criminal defence that the lawyers may present on behalf of the accused persons.  F
urther the counsel should act diligently and competently and the court should presume that lawyers act ethically, as I mentioned in my said earlier rulings.

Occasionally counsel is obliged to withdraw from a case.  This may be because instructions have been withdrawn, counsel no longer feels able to represent the client satisfactorily, or considers there to be a conflict of interest, or conflict
 with his or her duty to the court in continuing to appear for the client, or that counsel is physically incapacitated from appearing.  This is not an exhaustive list of instances, for there are likely to be other and proper reasons for seeking withdrawal

Before parting with this appeal I must mention that there is not even an allegation that counsel who appeared for the Appellants had done anything short of his best in the conduct of the defence due to the dispute relating to the non-payment of profe
ssional fees.  Thus, there is no question of the Appellants complaining of not having had a fair trial due to the refusal of their counsel\rquote 
s application to withdraw.  In terms of section 23 (1) (a) of the Court of Appeal Act, an appeal could be allowed int
er alia on any ground constituting a miscarriage of justice.  The appellants have not elevated their complaint set out in ground four to that level either.\'94

It is most unfortunate that a person charged with such a serious crime as the appellant was, should come to be represented by a person whose competence fell short of the standard which a court should be entitle
d to expect.  However, just as in medicine there may be terminal cases which not even the most brilliant surgeon can remedy, there will be prosecution cases which an accused could not successfully defend with the aid of the most resourceful and competent 
of counsel.  We have come to the conclusion that this was such a case.  That does not mean of course that a person against whom the case is a very strong one, is not entitled to a fair trial.  But unlike in the }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0
