The state Board of Judicial Conduct has dismissed an activist’s complaint that Tennessee Supreme Court Justice Gary Wade didn’t abide by the very judicial conduct rules he helped create. Both disciplinary counsel and the investigative panel investigated and considered your complaint very seriously and felt it raised an area of concern that has been addressed, Judge Chris Craft, chair of the Tennessee Board of Judicial Conduct, reportedly wrote to Nashville activist George Scoville on Sept. 5. However, the panel decided the complaint did not rise to the level of judicial misconduct that is required for disciplinary action to be taken in the form of a reprimand or censure. While your complaint did not result in a discipline being imposed, it brought to the Board’s attention a situation that has been addressed by other means and thus was helpful to the Board.
