Senate Bill 655 amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 8-7-106(b), by adding a new provision that allows a district attorney general to consent to the appointment of another district attorney general or an assistant from a different judicial district. This appointment is specifically for conducting proceedings related to the removal of officers as outlined in chapter 47 of the title, which the district attorney general is already authorized to handle within their district.
The bill aims to enhance the flexibility and efficiency of the removal process by enabling collaboration between different judicial districts. It is set to take effect immediately upon becoming law, emphasizing the importance of timely action in matters concerning the removal of officers.
