The Tennessee Trial Court Vacancy Commission will consider four applicants for a circuit court vacancy in the 20th Judicial District. They are: solo practioners Tusca R.S. Alexis and Audrey Lee Anderson, Stanley A. Kweller with Watkins & McNeilly, and Stephanie J. Williams, special master for the judicial district’s Fourth Circuit Court. The vacancy was created by the death of Judge Philip E. Smith on Sept. 4. The commission will hold a public hearing on Oct. 18 at 9 a.m. CDT to interview the candidates and is expected to vote immediately following the interviews on the three names to send to Gov. Bill Lee for his consideration. Read more about the applicants and details about attending the hearing from the Administrative Office of the Courts.
