petition for discipline.

of law in Tennessee.

disbarment to be published in accordance with Tenn. Sup. Ct. R. 9, § 28.11.
(5) Mr. Phillips shall comply in all aspects with Tenn. Sup. Ct. R. 9, §§ 28 and

(6) Pursuant to Tenn. Sup. Ct. R. 9, § 28.1, this Order shall be effective upon
entry.
(7) Mr. Phillips shall pay to the Clerk of this Court the costs incurred herein for
which execution, if necessary, may issue.
