A Prince Albert lawyer has been sentenced to serve time in jail after pleading guilty to fraud involving the misappropriation of funds and conflicts of interest.

Kris Eggum pleaded guilty to fraud over $5,000 last week at Prince Albert Court of Queen’s Bench. Eggum was sentenced to 90 days in jail, to be served on weekends, followed by three years of probation.

Eggum was suspended by the Law Society of Saskatchewan in 2012 and an investigation was launched.
