No. ADM2022-00355
ORDER On March 21, 2022, the Tennessee Trial Judges' Association ("TTJA") filed a petition asking the Supreme Court to consider adopting amendments to Rule 10B of the Rules of the Tennessee Supreme Court. If adopted, the proposed amendments will provide for summary denial of improper repetitive recusal motions, give the appellate court a means of supplementing the factual record, and codify existing case law on the scope of expedited interlocutory appeal and the procedures to be followed on remand from orders reversing trial court orders denying recusal motions. The Court solicits written comments on the proposed amendments from judges, lawyers, bar associations, members of the public, and all interested parties. The deadline for submitting written comments is May 23, 2022 (60 days). Written comments should reference ADM2022-00355 and be emailed to appellatecourtclerk@tncourts.gov.
