Hamblen County attorney selection and pay

The law creates Hamblen County’s County Attorney office, elected annually by the County Commission at its designated September meeting. County general funds pay a $1,200 annual retainer in equal monthly payments of $100. The county may also pay reasonable extra fees for county legal work and reimburse actual expenses. All pay and reimbursements face county legislative review through the Consent Calendar. Expense claims must be itemized, certified by the attorney, and paid under county financial rules. Payments use a County Judge or Chairman warrant directing the county trustee to pay. The law takes effect only after approval by two-thirds of the county legislative body. The presiding officer must announce approval or rejection and certify it to the Secretary of State.
