WILLIAMSON COUNTY ATTORNEY CENSURED
On December 23, 2013, Huntly Scott Gordon of Franklin, Tennessee was censured by Order of the
Tennessee Supreme Court. He must also pay the Board of Professional Responsibilityâs costs in this matter.
Mr. Gordon was one of several investors in the development of two tracts of land. Over a two-year
period of time, Mr. Gordon collected the rent paid by tenants residing in three (3) houses located on the tracts
and resided rent free in another. Mr. Gordon claimed that he had entered into a verbal agreement with the LLCs
allowing him to retain the rent, and live in the house, in exchange for services rendered to the LLCs. In so
doing, Mr. Gordon entered into a business transaction with a client which was not reduced to writing and
without the informed consent of the client.
His actions violate the following Rules of Professional Conduct: 1.8(a), Conflict of InterestâProhibited
Transactions; and 8.4(a), Misconduct.
