Tennessee Public Guardian, Jeanan Mills Stuart's, Fees Exceed $1.8 Million

The Davidson County public guardian, whose fees are under review by a local probate judge, has double-billed clients, billed more than 24 hours in a day and earned more than $270,000 in thousands of small, individual charges for tasks such as listening to a voice mail.

The Tennessean first raised questions  about Jeanan Mills Stuart’s fees when it found she was charging her legal rates of $200 to $225 per hour for nonlegal tasks, such as taking her wards on shopping trips and sorting their clothes before a move into an assisted-living center.

A new data analysis by The Tennessean of all of her billings between 2008 — when she was first appointed by the Metro Council — and February 2013 shows she has turned in fee requests with mistakes, such as double-billings, and more than 24-hour days, all of which have been approved by the judge overseeing the conservator cases.

In all, Stuart has billed for more than $1.8 million in fees since January 2008, when she took on her role, according to The Tennessean’s data analysis. As public guardian, she handles the affairs of people who are found by the Davidson County probate court to be mentally or physically unable to make their own decisions. Her wards have no control or say in what she does for them. The primary oversight of her fees is Davidson County Probate Judge David Randy Kennedy, who can approve or reject them.

Thank you, Wally Roche and the Tennessean for your vigilence and the many articles you have done which have drawn much public attention and outrage.

Jeanan Mills Stuart should be prosecuted. Judge Randy Kennedy should be disbarred.

Thank you NASGA for posting all these great articles from The Tennessean.

Does anyone think he breaks the law for free?

Yes, that smiling face, knowing who is behind it and the wide trail of devastation he's left, will cause anyone to go on a diet.

Now I know what the DEVIL looks like! Thank you NASGA and Walter Roche and the Tennessean for a photo from the dark side the lowest level in HELL along with his pal Stuart who is concealing the truth how many versions does it take? God Help Us All especially praying for all the innocent people in Kennedy's jurisdiction.

Some genetic oddity....

Thick as thieves. That's the old saying and it appears to apply here.

Thelma said...

Fingers same length? Her brain is clearly warped, to treat people the way she does.

Sylvia said...

Good observations Anon about the fingers - I wonder what that indicates? Could it be a disability?

Judge Kennedy and Jeanan Mills Stuart have hurt so many people. She was the UNWANTED conservator Judge Smiling Face appointed over my father in law, while we all sat in his courtroom. We are looking forward to seeing first Jeanan, then Kennedy, go down. Down is only place they can go.

I'm OUTRAGED, APPALLED, and SICK to MY STOMACH every time I read and view these stories!!! What the hell is going on here!!!? How can our country/mankind allow such blatent acts of pure, 100% crimminal behavior based purely on greed to take place without literally storming the probate courtrooms in outage!!!? This may have to come to a massive demonstration comperable to the likes of the Boston Tea Party to turn this atrocity around. For God's sake! These are human lives being devoured like raw meat in a shark fest! It can NOT be tolerated any more, and I propose a massive demonstration needs to take place ASAP. More soon after I calm down...God help us and the victoms whose lives must be saved.

truly an oversight on Judge Kennedy's part? Who benefited from the 1.8 million fees? Hire an outside forsenic accountant let them follow the money trail...everyone who benefitted, needs to be
accountable.....this is outrageous..
