The Supreme Court of Tennessee today temporarily suspended Davidson County lawyer Judson Wheeler Phillips from the practice of law upon finding that Phillips poses a threat of substantial harm to the public. Section 12.3 of Supreme Court Rule 9 provides for the immediate summary suspension of an attorney’s license to practice law if an attorney poses a threat of substantial harm to the public. Phillips is immediately precluded from accepting any new cases, and he must cease representing existing clients by Sept. 7.
