Bryna Landers Grant, Attorney at Law

Many of our clients have received citations for Ma*****na possession only to have their cases dismissed upon showing proof that their possession was a hemp-derived product, lawfully purchased at a smoke shop or gas station.

Starting July 1, the Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission will begin enforcing a 2025 law that effectively will ban THCA and similar popular hemp-derived products.

It is important to spread the word that in counties, especially the ones that touch Davidson County, law enforcement agencies and the prosecutors will be cracking down on that simple possession charge. If you need representation, we are a phone call away - 615-630-8499

In the last year I have had a handful of these cases in juvenile court and this bill passage greatly pleases me…. Common sense here people!!

SCHOOL THREATS: A bill (HB1273/SB0591) specifying that school officials are only legally required to report threats of mass violence they deem credible passed both chambers with unanimous support. The legislation, sponsored by Sen. Ferrell Haile (R-Gallatin) and Rep. Clay Doggett (R-Pulaski), is meant to avoid cases in which students, including some with disabilities, are expelled and criminally charged for making verbal threats they have no ability to carry out. Metro Nashville Public Schools saw nearly four times as many students arrested for threats during the 2024-2025 school year compared to previous years following recent changes in state law. Haile told the Senate Judiciary Committee that a 5th-grade student with disabilities in his district was convicted of a felony, put on probation and moved to homebound instruction after making a threatening comment “in a moment of frustration.”

Thank you Senator Haile!!

Along similar lines for immigrant drivers:
HB 1706/SB 1587, established a Class A misdemeanor charge for the act of driving in Tennessee if you are unlawfully present in the country. In other words, anyone without citizenship or legal residency could face up to a year in jail and would be required to be reported to federal immigration authorities.

Another tough ones for those attempting to drive legally in our state: DRIVING: Lawmakers also passed a series of bills making it harder for immigrants to drive in Tennessee and easier to press criminal charges related to driving as part of the White House package.

HB 1708/SB 1889 requires drivers to pass the state driver’s license test in English after an 18-month grace period, despite pushback from businesses with international employees and even the Japanese Consulate. Drivers can initially pass the test in one of the five languages currently provided by the state, but will only receive a temporary license and will only be allowed to test in English going forward.

Tennessee lawmakers adjourned late Thursday after a marathon week of floor sessions, during which they heard around 150 bills to wrap up a biannual legislative session here are some of the bills they passed:

HIT-AND-RUN: Both chambers of the legislature unanimously approved a bill (HB1967/SB1602) increasing the penalty for leaving the scene of an accident that results in an injury or one the driver knew or should reasonably have known resulted in death. The legislation was named for James Bardsey Jr., a 19-year-old who was killed in a hit-and-run in Rutherford County in 2021.
