Knoxville Attorney Russ Egli has filed an appearance in the Whiskey Barrel Trading LLC vs Robyn Hurvitz case in Monroe County TN.
A July 2024 press release on Marquis Who's Who describes Mr. Egli:
"A distinguished attorney with a career spanning over 18 years. In 2007 as a new member of the bar, Mr. Egli went before the Tennessee Senate Judiciary Committee, highlighting the fact that the Tennessee Judiciary was experiencing significant problems with a litigant's due process right to pursue the removal of a judge which has an actual conflict or an appearance of impropriety.
This Senate Judiciary hearing in which other members of the Tennessee Bar, as well as Tennesse residents who were in litigation with a judge refusing to recuse from the case despite an actual conflict or appearance of impropriety testified, was instrumental in changing the laws surrounding the recusal of a judge in Tennessee as well as the disbandment of the Tennessee Court of the Judiciary which was not disciplining Tennessee judges who had clearly violated their judicial canons."
