On a beautiful Saturday in Eastern Tennessee, the University of Tennessee
College of Law and Vet to Vet Tennessee partnered with three 4th Judicial
District Judges, Hon. O. Duane Slone, Hon. Dennis Roach II, and Hon. Carter
Moore to conduct a Community Court to help hundreds of Cocke/Jefferson county
citizens with prior criminal records. The court was held at the First Baptist
Church of Dandridge.
This is the fourth year that UT College of Law and Vet to Vet Tennessee have
sponsored an Expungement Clinic. This is the first time the team had to deal
with the pandemic and with the support and guidance of the UT Nurses, we were
able to conduct the court safely in person. The logistic added extra logistics
and cost but the results we “Worth It”. Click here to read the UT story.
The results are still being tabulated and we will publish information as
soon as they are completed. In the meantime please click here to
view the 85+ volunteers who participated in the clinic. We think this is the best
clinic to date! Thank you, Prof. Joy Radice and Karla Mendez. Thank you Vet to
Vet TN volunteers Sheryn Davis, Pat Junod, Dr. Emily Hager, Melvin Oggs, Randall Scott, Don Davis, and Ed Junod. The next Expungement Clinic is scheduled for March 6, 2021,
in Monroe County at the First Baptist Church of Madisonville, TN.
