Appointed Counsel Vol. 10 - Sufficient Specificity of Claims

Tennessee Administrative Office of the Courts Season 1 Episode 10

Section 6 of Rule 13 states that "counsel will be held to a high degree of care in keeping of contemporaneous time records, and that failure to provide sufficient specificity…may constitute grounds for denial of the claim for compensation or reimbursement." Nobody likes returned claims on either side, neither the attorneys nor the people processing the claims.  Here to help guide you through these specifics are host Joe Byrd, and two of the people who process these claims, Wyatt Jordan – Senior Auditor over criminal claims, and Jada Herndon – Senior Auditor over civil child welfare claims. This podcast is intended for attorneys.

Produced by David Stripling, Tennessee Administrative Office of the Courts
