One Censure, One Reprimand

A circuit court judge has been censured and reprimanded by the Tennessee Board of Judicial Conduct.

The censure involved “intemperate, argumentative, disruptive” conduct at a deposition. The judge’s conduct thus failed to abide by a previous resolution of comlaints against the judge.

The reprimand involved an improper ex parte hearing and relief granted in a petition to modify a permanent parenting plan. (Mike Frisch)
