The woman did not consent and said his actions were “unwanted sexual contact”.
The Bar Tribunals and Adjudication Service said he “behaved in a way likely to diminish the trust and confidence” in his profession.
Barry, who works for The 36 Group and the CPS and is likely to earn more than £200,000 was reprimanded and fined £3,000.
He has the option to appeal and did not comment.
