MEMPHIS LAWYER CENSURED
On November 14, 2007, Gail O. Mathes, of Memphis, Tennessee, received a Public Censure
from the Board of Professional Responsibility. Mathes was given notice of the Censure and did not request a
hearing.
Mathes stated and implied an ability to influence a tribunal on grounds unrelated to the merits of
the procedures governing her clientâs legal matter. Mathesâ actions violated Rule 8.4(e) of the Tennessee Rules
of Professional Conduct.
The Censure declares Mathesâ actions to be improper ethical misconduct but does not limit her
right to practice law.
