Paul Flowers found the court locked as he arrived for the hearing
Former Co-op Bank boss Paul Flowers has pleaded guilty to drug possession, at Leeds Magistrates' Court.
Mr Flowers, 63, was arrested last November after newspaper allegations he had been involved in a drug deal.
The suspended Methodist minister had stepped down from the Co-op six months earlier over concerns about expenses.
He was fined £400 and ordered to pay £125 in costs after pleading guilty to charges of possessing cocaine, methamphetamine and ketamine.
Mr Flowers previously served as a Labour councillor in Bradford and on an informal board advising Labour leader Ed Miliband on banking.
He was suspended by the Labour Party and the Methodist Church and faces a disciplinary procedure by the Church.
His appointment as Co-op Bank chairman in April 2010 was widely criticised because of his inexperience in banking.
In May last year, the Co-op Bank was found to have a £1.5bn black hole in its finances.
Mr Flowers stepped down the following month.
Mr Flowers is also a former trustee of the drugs charity Lifeline, from which he resigned in 2004 after allegedly filing false expense claims.
