Supreme court applicants Three state appellate judges are among the nine applicants seeking appointment to the Tennessee Supreme Court vacancy created by former Chief Justice Gary Wade's resignation. Tennessee Court of Appeals, Eastern Section Judge Thomas Frierson II of Morristown is among those who have applied for the post.. The state's Council for Judicial Appointments will select three of the nine applicants during an Oct. 27 meeting in Nashville and forward their recommendations to Republican Gov. Bill Haslam. Wade and the two other Democratic justices won re-election last year despite an organized effort by Republican Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey and other conservatives to persuade state voters to oust them in yes/no retention elections. Wade then left his seat in September. Other applicants for the Supreme Court slot include Herbert S. Moncier, a Knoxville attorney whose ability to practice in federal court was once suspended for five years. That came after Moncier refused a U.S. district judge's order to remain silent while the judge questioned Newport resident Mike Vassar.
