RUTHERFORD COUNTY LAWYER CENSURED
On November 21, 2025, Mark Stephen Moore, an attorney licensed to practice law in Tennessee, received
a Public Censure from the Supreme Court of Tennessee and was ordered to pay the costs and fees of the Board
of Professional Responsibility.
Mr. Moore entered the area of the Rutherford County Probate Court containing probate files and, without
permission or authority from the clerk or Court, removed one file and a portion of a second file. While the file
was in his possession, he also placed two documents in the file not properly filed with the court. When the clerk
contacted him later the same day to inquire about the removed file and documents, Respondent Moore initially
denied his conduct. However, the following day, Mr. Moore admitted his conduct and returned all probate files
or related documents in his possession. Neither removal of the files nor adding material to the files had any
impact on any probate proceedings.
Mr. Moore executed a conditional guilty plea acknowledging his conduct violated Rules of Professional
Conduct 4.1 (truthfulness in statements to others) and 8.4(c) (misconduct involving dishonesty).
A Public Censure is a rebuke and warning to the attorney, but it does not affect the attorneyâs ability to
practice law.
