DAVIDSON COUNTY LAWYER REINSTATED
On October 16, 2015, the Supreme Court of Tennessee vacated the Order of Enforcement entered on
August 13, 2015, wherein the law license of William Caldwell Hancock was suspended for one (1) year. Mr.
Hancockâs license to practice law shall be returned to active status as of the date of this Order.
The Tennessee Supreme Court took this action following Mr. Hancockâs assertion that he did not
receive a copy of a final judgment issued by the trial court in his appeal of an attorney disciplinary proceeding.
The trial court granted Mr. Hancock relief by re-entering its final judgment affirming the disciplinary sanction
on September 29, 2015, thereby initiating a new period to appeal.
