DAVIDSON COUNTY LAWYER SUSPENDED
On March 25, 2021, the Supreme Court of Tennessee entered an order suspending Charles Edward
Walker from the practice of law for a period of three (3) years pursuant to Tennessee Supreme Court Rule 9,
Section 12.2, with the final year served on probation under the supervision of a practice monitor pursuant to
Tennessee Supreme Court Rule 9, Section 12.9(c), and payment to the Board for all costs in the disciplinary
proceeding.
The Trial Court found Mr. Walker failed to correct statements and representations made previously to
the court; prepared legal documents that were deceitful in order to redeem title to real property in the Chancery
Courts; was adjudged in willful contempt of an injunction prohibiting him from recording any document in any
Register of Deeds in Tennessee without filing a notice of intent with the Chancery Court or withdrawing from
the registry of the court or any Clerk and Master in Tennessee funds paid to redeem real property without leave
of court; and failed to disclose his disciplinary history, his criminal contempt conviction and a pending
disciplinary matter in a pro hac vice application filed with the United States District Court for the Western
District at Austin.
The Trial Court found Mr. Walker violated Tennessee Rules of Professional Conduct 3.1 (Meritorious
Claims and Contentions), 3.3 (Candor Toward the Tribunal), 3.4 (Fairness to the Opposing Party and Counsel),
4.1 (Truthfulness in Statements to Others), and 8.4 (a), (c) and (d) (Misconduct).
Mr. Walker must comply with the requirements of Tennessee Supreme Court Rule 9, Sections 28 and
30.4 regarding the obligations and responsibilities of suspended attorneys and the procedures for reinstatement.
