Senate Bill 86 proposes amendments to the Tennessee Code Annotated concerning the Tennessee Board of Judicial Conduct. Specifically, it deletes subdivision (40) from Section 4-29-246(a) and adds a new subdivision to Section 4-29-252(a) that formally recognizes the Tennessee Board of Judicial Conduct, which is established by Section 17-5-201.

The bill aims to streamline the legal framework surrounding the Board by removing outdated provisions and clarifying its existence within the state’s legal structure. The changes are intended to enhance the governance of judicial conduct in Tennessee, with the act taking effect immediately upon becoming law.
