The Tennessee Supreme Court issued an order last week seeking comments on a petition filed by the Board of the Tennessee Lawyers’ Fund for Client Protection (TLFCP) on March 3. The petition asks the court to consider amendments to Tennessee Supreme Court Rule 9 and Rule 25 to (1) increase the annual attorney registration fee from $170 to $185, (2) increase the portion of the fee TLFCP receives from $10 to $25, (3) modify the limitations on payments that TLFCP may make, and (4) require TLFCP to publicize information about claims that are paid. Comments should be submitted by June 10.
