CRIMENET has extracted 4 linkages for this organization, including 1 cooperative ties across 1 organization, 1 conflicts across 1 organization, 2 other connections and footprints in 1 country.
In Italy, the lawyer's certificates as being registered in the Bota Bar were considered worthless scraps of paper, and the Italians who used them were not allowed to register in the Italian bars or were erased from the Italian bars due to lacking the title 'lawyer'. Each false certificate costs 7000 Euro, plus VAT, payable to the Bota Bar.
