“To the extent she has been compensated in amounts now deemed excessive, the ultimate responsibilities for approval of her fees rests with me… In other words the buck stops here,” Kennedy wrote in the three-page letter.
Kennedy’s action follows a Tennessean report that detailed how Stuart routinely charges her full legal fees of up to $225 an hour for non-legal services. She has billed some of her wards $400 to attend their funerals. And she billed another ward $986 to accompany her to a performance of Handel’s Messiah, and $1,282 for a shopping trip to Dillard’s, Walgreens and lunch.

Kennedy admitted that he approved all her fees. What discipline will he receive?

Feeling the heat Judge Kennedy? How does it feel?
Oh the heat is on Judge Kennedy well it's about time he was forced to listen due to the evidence and facts being published sure he took action before he was forced to respond - I wonder what his peers think of him? Oh I love it the power of the press to hold people in high places accountable finally. Love and hugs to the reporter and the Tennessean for making a difference in the best interest of society. Thank you!!!
