DAVIDSON COUNTY LAWYER REINSTATED

On March 10, 2014, the Supreme Court of Tennessee reinstated the law license of Lee Michael Sprouse.

Mr. Sprouse had been temporarily suspended by the Supreme Court of Tennessee on February 4, 2014, for

failing to respond to the Board of Professional Responsibility regarding a complaint of misconduct. Supreme

Court Rule 9 provides for the immediate summary suspension of an attorneyâs license to practice law in cases of

an attorneyâs failure to respond to the Board regarding a complaint of misconduct. Mr. Sprouse filed a Petition

to Dissolve the temporary suspension on February 13, 2014, asking the Court to reinstate him. A Hearing Panel

appointed to hear the Petition recommended to the Supreme Court that the temporary suspension be dissolved.
