Sumner County attorney Jocelyn D. Mims was reinstated by the Tennessee Supreme Court on July 12. Mims had been disbarred in August 2009 upon pleading guilty to a serious crime. At an April 2017 hearing, a panel found that Mims met her burden of proving by clear and convincing evidence that she has the moral qualifications, competency and learning in the law required for admission to practice law in Tennessee, and that the resumption of the practice of law will not be detrimental to the integrity and standing of the bar or the administration of justice, or subversive to the public interest.
