The Council may discharge the articles of clerkship of the articled clerk upon such terms as the Council thinks fit if —
an attorney-at-law to whom an articled clerk is articled is declared bankrupt;
the name of an attorney-at-law to whom an articled clerk is articled is struck off the Roll;
an attorney-at-law to whom an articled clerk is articled is suspended from practice;
a recognised law entity to which an articled clerk is articled is wound up;
a recognised law entity to which an articled clerk is articled ceases to be a recognised law entity;
the Council is satisfied after investigation that an articled clerk is not a fit and proper person to become an attorney-at-law;
upon the application of either an attorney-at-law or a recognised law entity or that attorney-at-law's or recognised law entity's articled clerk, the Council is satisfied that the articles of clerkship of the articled clerk ought to be discharged; or
if an attorney-at-law or a recognised law entity has in that attorney-at-law's or recognised law entity's service an articled clerk in contravention of this Part.
