Shelby County lawyer Randy N. Songstad was censured today after the Tennessee Supreme Court found that he held over $350 in personal funds in his trust account, resulting in a commingling of funds. Several months later, Songstad deposited over $11,000 of earned fees into trust because he did not have an operating account, resulting in the further commingling of client funds and personal funds. These actions were determined to violate Rules of Professional Conduct 1.15 (safekeeping funds).
