A disgraced financial adviser who embezzled more than $15 million of his clients' money will appeal his prison sentence.
Barry Edward Kloogh, 57, was sentenced to eight years 10 months' imprisonment on a raft of dishonesty charges, which took place over 25 years, when he appeared in the Dunedin District Court in July.
Judge Michael Crosbie imposed a minimum non-parole period of five years four months.
The Ministry of Justice confirmed this morning Kloogh had lodged an appeal which would be heard in the High Court at Dunedin in December.
