The Tennessee Supreme Court on Oct. 9 imposed a public censured on Fayette County lawyer Leslie Adkins Miller. The court found that while Miller was representing a client whose parental rights were terminated, she failed to timely file documents required by the court. This failure resulted in the client’s appeal being dismissed. The court found that Miller’s action violated Rules of Professional Conduct 1.3 , 3.2, 3.4 and 8.4(d).
