The Board of Professional Responsibility of the Tennessee Supreme Court today censured Shelby County lawyer Christopher Lynn Taylor. While awaiting summary judgement, Taylor’s client in the matter filed a pro se motion to “disqualify” Taylor. Taylor sent a closing letter and provided the client with a copy of her file, but failed to withdraw from the pending court matter. He then failed to inform his client of the decision on summary judgment and failed to represent her on a motion for costs filed by the defendant, including at several court hearings on the motion for costs.
