Davidson County lawyer C. LeAnn Smith was suspended from the practice of law today for two years and six months. As a condition of reinstatement, Smith would have to enter into a Tennessee Lawyers Assistance Program monitoring agreement that includes reporting to the Tennessee Supreme Court’s Board of Professional Responsibility. The court took the action after receiving one complaint that Smith testified falsely under oath as a party to a lawsuit. Her conduct was found to violate Rule of Professional Conduct 8.4(c) and (d).
