Tenn. Ct. Judi. R. 1
As amended through July 2, 2024
If a judge consents to a sanction as provided for in Tenn. Code Ann. § 17-5-307(g), and the hearing panel approves the sanction agreement, then the sanction agreement shall be reduced to writing and shall be approved by the judge, the judge's counsel (if any), disciplinary counsel and the hearing panel, and the sanction order shall be entered by the presiding judge. Because a hearing panel may act only after formal charges have been filed against a judge, all sanctions administered by a hearing panel shall be public, whether or not the judge has consented to the sanctions.
