FLORIDA LAWYER DISBARRED
On December 22, 2016, Frank Alfred Baker, of Marianna, Florida, was disbarred by Order of the
Tennessee Supreme Court retroactive to July 25, 2016, exclusive of any period of incarceration.
The Tennessee Supreme Court suspended Mr. Baker on July 25, 2016, pursuant to Tennessee Supreme
Court Rule 9, Section 22.3, based upon his conviction of conspiracy, two counts of making a false statement to
the FDIC, making a false claim against the United States, and four counts of wire fraud. The Board of
Professional Responsibility instituted a formal proceeding to determine the extent of final discipline to be
imposed. Mr. Baker entered a conditional guilty plea calling for disbarment and restitution.
Mr. Bakerâs actions violated Rules of Professional Conduct 8.4(a) and (b), Misconduct.
Mr. Baker must comply with the requirements of Tennessee Supreme Court Rule 9, Sections 28 and
30.4, regarding the obligations and responsibilities of suspended attorneys. Mr. Baker must pay the Boardâs
costs and expenses and the court costs within ninety days of the entry of the order.
