Nick West, a London-based partner at DLA Piper, has been fined £15,000 for sending ‘despicable’ emails to the Premier League’s executive chairman Richard Scudamore.
West hit the headlines in 2014 when a crude email exchange with Scudamore, which contained sexually explicit and sexist comments about a female colleague of Scudamore’s who the pair had nicknamed ‘Edna’, was made public by the Premier League supremo’s former personal assistant Rani Abraham.
