Attorney and lecturer at the Norman Manley Law School, Laverne George, who is accused of defrauding two of her clients of nearly J$20 million had her bail extended when she appeared in court on Tuesday.
George, who was charged last week by the Counter Terrorism and Organized Crime Investigation Branch (C-TOC), pleaded not guilty.
Investigators say in 2010, the attorney sold a property for one of her clients for J$10 million but only handed over one million dollars from the sale.
It's alleged that she sold another property in 2013 for J$8 million but fraudulently converted the money to her personal use.
George is scheduled to return to court month.
