The state Supreme Court today extended the deadline for submitting comments on proposed amendments to Tennessee Supreme Court Rule 19. Comments are now due Nov. 10. The court first announced the proposed amendments on Sept. 7. The changes are designed to eliminate a potential conflict between Rule 7, section 5.01(g)(8) and Rule 19, which deals with pro hac vice appearances before Tennessee courts and agencies. The Knoxville Bar Association requested the extension according to the court.
