In the on-going clean-up from the massive flooding here in Middle Tennessee this month, the Tennessee Supreme Court entered an interesting Order under Tennessee Supreme Court Rule 49. The Order grants an automatic extension of time of 30 days for any filing which was due in Davidson County (Nashville) Courts on May 3-5, 2010, during which time Davidson County, and other surrounding County courts, were closed due to the flooding. Individual Judges have been continuing trials as needed, as well, but the Order offers a universal extension of time as the City recovers.
The Courts were not the most severely affected by the flooding, of course, but the Juvenile Courts are still displaced, and many attorneys are just returning to their downtown offices this week. Disaster Assistance Centers are available every day this week in five locations—with volunteer attorneys on-site to answer questions. Click here for more information.
