KNOX COUNTY LAWYER CENSURED
On July 5, 2022, Keith Allen Pope, an attorney licensed to practice law in Tennessee, received a Public
Censure from the Board of Professional Responsibility of the Tennessee Supreme Court.
Mr. Pope engaged in criminal conduct, pled guilty to a violation of an Order of Protection and violated
his bond conditions, which reflects adversely upon his fitness as a lawyer in other respects.
By these acts, Mr. Pope has violated Rules of Professional Conduct 3.4(c) (disobeying an obligation
under the rules of a tribunal), and 8.4(b) (misconduct), and is hereby Publicly Censured for these violations.
This Public Censure is conditioned on Mr. Pope complying with a Tennessee Lawyer Assistance Program
monitoring agreement, with mandatory reporting to Disciplinary Counsel every six (6) months.
A Public Censure is a rebuke and warning to the attorney, but it does not affect the attorneyâs ability to
practice law.
