SHELBY COUNTY ATTORNEY DISBARRED

On June 5, 2014, Sharon K. Anderson, of Memphis, Tennessee, was disbarred by Order of the
Tennessee Supreme Court.

The Tennessee Supreme Court had suspended Ms. Anderson on January 21, 2014 pursuant to Tennessee
Supreme Court Rule 9, Section 14, based upon her entry of a guilty plea to a serious crime, i.e., fraudulent
transmission of money in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2314. The Board of Professional Responsibility instituted a
formal proceeding to determine the extent of final discipline to be imposed. Ms. Anderson entered into a
Conditional Guilty Plea accepting a sanction of disbarment.

Ms. Anderson’s actions violate the following Rules of Professional Conduct: 8.4, Misconduct.

Ms. Anderson must comply with Tennessee Supreme Court Rule 9, Section 18 (2006) and Section 30
(2014) regarding the obligations and responsibilities of disbarred attorneys and the procedures for reinstatement.
She must pay the Board’s costs and expenses prior to reinstatement to the practice of law.
