KNOX COUNTY LAWYER TEMPORARILY SUSPENDED
On November 17, 2022, the Supreme Court of Tennessee temporarily suspended Gary Lee Anderson
from the practice of law upon finding that Mr. Anderson failed to respond to the Board of Professional
Responsibility concerning two (2) complaints of misconduct. Section 12.3 of Supreme Court Rule 9 provides
for the immediate summary suspension of an attorneyâs license to practice law in cases of an attorneyâs failure
to respond to a complaint of misconduct.
Mr. Anderson is immediately precluded from accepting any new cases, and he must cease representing
existing clients by December 17, 2022. After December 17, 2022, Mr. Anderson shall not use any indicia of
lawyer, legal assistant, or law clerk nor maintain a presence wherein the practice of law is conducted. Mr.
Anderson must notify all clients being represented in pending matters, as well as co-counsel and opposing
counsel, of the Supreme Courtâs Order suspending his law license, and is required to deliver to all clients any
papers or property to which they are entitled.
Mr. Anderson must comply with the requirements of Tennessee Supreme Court Rule 9, Sections 28 and
12.3(d), regarding the obligations and responsibilities of temporarily suspended attorneys and the procedure for
reinstatement.
This suspension remains in effect until dissolution or modification by the Supreme Court. Mr. Anderson
may, for good cause, request dissolution or modification of the suspension by petition to the Supreme Court.
