DAVIDSON COUNTY LAWYER CENSURED AND REINSTATED
On March 25, 2019, Erich Webb Bailey was publicly censured by Order of the Tennessee Supreme
Court. As a condition of his public censure, Mr. Bailey must enter into a monitoring agreement with the
Tennessee Lawyers Assistance Program (TLAP). Mr. Bailey must pay the Boardâs costs and expenses and the
court costs within ninety days of the entry of the Order of Enforcement.
On October 4, 2017, a Petition for Discipline was filed against Mr. Bailey alleging that when he
represented the mother in a child custody dispute, he failed to communicate with his client and failed to appear
in court when the matter was set for hearing. Mr. Bailey entered into a conditional guilty plea admitting that his
actions violated Rules of Professional Conduct 1.3, Diligence; 1.4, Communication; and 8.4, Misconduct.
On July 17, 2017, Mr. Bailey was temporarily suspended by the Tennessee Supreme Court for
substantial noncompliance with a previous TLAP monitoring agreement. Mr. Bailey is reinstated from that
suspension by this Order.
A Public Censure is a rebuke and warning to the attorney, but it does not affect the attorneyâs ability to
practice law.
