The Tennessee Supreme Court issued an order yesterday conditioning reinstatement of Rhea County lawyer Lee R. Thurman on completion of required CLE hours. Thurman filed a petition on Aug. 23 seeking reinstatement of his law license. The Board of Professional Responsibility reported it was not opposed to reinstatement but the Tennessee Commission on Continuing Legal Education reported that Thurman was not compliant with CLE requirements. The court gave Thurman until Oct. 12 to satisfy those obligations or said it would dismiss his petition.
