Campbell County lawyer Eric John Montierth was temporarily suspended from the practice of law today after the Tennessee Supreme Court found he failed to respond to the Board of Professional Responsibility about three complaints of misconduct. Supreme Court Rule 9 Section 12.3 provides for the immediate suspension of an attorney’s license for failure to respond to a complaint. Montierth is immediately precluded from accepting any new cases, and must cease representing existing clients by Oct. 23.
