The Tennessee Supreme Court today disbarred Gregory Scott Norris from the practice of law and ordered him to pay restitution to six former clients totaling $6,000. The court took the action after finding that Norris failed to appear in court on numerous occasions, stopped corresponding with opposing attorneys, made incoherent arguments in court, took fees from clients for whom he did little-to-no work, failed to advise clients of his temporary suspension, failed to communicate with or return files to clients, and abandoned numerous client matters. His actions were determined to violate Rules of Professional Conduct 1.1, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.16(d), 3.2, 8.1, 8.4(a), (d) and (g).
