ORDER OF ENFORCEMENT
This cause is before the Court upon a Notice of Submission filed by the Board of
Professional Responsibility providing notice pursuant to Tenn. Sup. Ct. R. 9, § 23, of the
affidavit of Judson Wheeler Phillips, consenting to disbarment. Mr. Phillips is an
attorney licensed to practice law in the State of Tennessee and is subject to the
disciplinary jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of Tennessee, pursuant to Rule 9 of the
Rules of the Supreme Court of Tennessee.
It appears to the Court that Judson Wheeler Phillips has delivered to the Board of
Professional Responsibility an affidavit in compliance with Tenn. Sup. Ct. R. 9, § 23.1.
Mr. Phillips has consented to disbarment because he cannot successfully defend himself
against the charges alleged in the pending Board files listed in the affidavit.
On August 24, 2018, Mr. Phillips was disbarred by this Court pursuant to Tenn.
Sup. Ct. R. 9, § 12.1, in Case No. M2018-01480-SC-BAR-BP. Mr. Phillips has not
requested, nor been granted, reinstatement.
IT IS, THEREFORE, CONSIDERED, ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND
DECREED BY THE COURT THAT:

Tennessee.
(2) This Order of Enforcement shall be a matter of public record.

proceeding except upon further Order of this Court.
(4) The Board of Professional Responsibility shall cause notice of this
disbarment to be published in accordance with Tenn. Sup. Ct. R. 9, § 28.11.
(5) Additionally, Mr. Phillips shall comply in all aspects with Tenn. Sup. Ct. R.
9, §§ 28 and 30.4, regarding the obligations and responsibilities of disbarred attorneys
and the procedure for reinstatement. Prior to seeking reinstatement, Mr. Phillips must
meet all CLE requirements and pay any outstanding registration fees including those due
from the date of disbarment until the date of reinstatement.
(6) Pursuant to Tenn. Sup. Ct. R. 9, § 28.1, this Order shall be effective upon
entry.
(7) Mr. Phillips shall pay to the Clerk of this Court the costs incurred herein,
for all of which execution may issue if necessary.
(8) The Board may make application for the assessment of its necessary and
reasonable costs.
