The Tennessee Supreme Court has issued an order amending Supreme Court Rule 11, section VI a(1) and a(2) to remove Memphis Area Legal Services (MALS) from the list of organizations eligible to receive funding from the state’s Civil Legal Representation of Indigents Fund. It also adjusted the percentage of funding the remaining three organizations will receive from the fund. The court says it took the action since MALS is no longer an organization within the Legal Services Corporation. Read the order or see a red line version of the changes.
