Specifically, it deletes subdivision (40) from Section 4-29-246(a) and adds a new subdivision to Section 4-29-252(a) that explicitly recognizes the Tennessee Board of Judicial Conduct, which is established by Section 17-5-201.

The bill aims to clarify the legal framework surrounding the Tennessee Board of Judicial Conduct by ensuring its formal acknowledgment in the relevant statutes. The changes are intended to enhance the governance and oversight of judicial conduct in the state, with the act taking effect immediately upon becoming law.
