Donald F. Paine

Posted on: Dec 31, 2013

Donald Franklin Paine died on November 18, 2013. He was born on April 29, 1939. After military service he practiced law in Knoxville and taught at the University of Tennessee College of Law. Mr. Paine served as President of the Knoxville Bar Association and of the Tennessee Bar Association. Don taught the bar review course for decades.  He established the Tennessee Law Institute, now in its forty-third year, and provided countless hours of continuing legal education statewide.  He had a brilliant mind, a wicked wit, yet remained a humble man, despite his many accolades.  He served as Reporter to the Tennessee Supreme Court’s Committee on Court Rules for over thirty years. He was also a mainstay at Legal Aid’s Saturday Bar program. Don loved the law and loved lawyers. The loss of Don Paine, teacher, scholar, lawyer and friend, left a huge void in the legal community.
