The Tennessee Supreme Court has issued a request for comments on three rules change proposals. The first, proposed by the CLE Commission, makes a number of changes to the commission’s regulations. The changes are detailed in a red line document attached to the order. The second proposes changes to Rule 21 Section 4.05 to reflect the fact that the Tennessee Board of Law Examiners no longer prepares bar examination questions and replace “Tennessee or any of the sister states” with “any state” in a section dealing with earning CLE credit through service as a bar examiner. The third proposes changes to Rule 21, section 5.01(g)(10) to align it with the current version of section 4.08(a). The deadline for submitting comments for any of these proposals is June 27. Written comments should reference docket No. ADM2025-00453 and be emailed to appellatecourtclerk@tncourts.gov or mailed to James Hivner, Clerk, Re: Tennessee Supreme Court Rule 21, 401 Seventh Ave. N., Ste. 321, Nashville, TN 37219-1407.
