CALGARY – A former Alberta cabinet minister has been cited by the province’s law society for alleged professional misconduct.

The Law Society of Alberta has posted two citations on its website for Calgary lawyer Jonathan Denis.

He served two terms as a member of the legislative assembly in Alberta and held several cabinet positions including as minister of justice.

Denis returned to the private sector after losing his seat in the 2015 election and started the Guardian Law Group.

One of the citations alleges that Denis acted for a client while in a conflict of interest.
