ROANE COUNTY LAWYER PERMANENTLY DISBARRED
Effective August 8, 2023, the Supreme Court of Tennessee permanently disbarred Kent Lowery Booher
from the practice of law and ordered him to pay all costs incurred to the Board of Professional Responsibility.
After a hearing upon the disciplinary petition, a Hearing Panel determined by a preponderance of the
evidence that Mr. Booherâs felony conviction of illegal sexual contact with minor children, intent to distribute
visual media relative to that illegal conduct, and violation of sex offender registry, of which Mr. Booher was a
member, constituted serious criminal conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit, or misrepresentation; was
prejudicial to the administration of justice and reflected adversely on his honesty, trustworthiness, or fitness as a
lawyer.
The Panel found Mr. Booherâs conduct violated Tennessee Rules of Professional Conduct 8.4(a), (b),
(c), and (d) (misconduct) and warranted permanent disbarment.
