The bill s sponsor in the senate, Sen. Mike Bell, R-Riceville, was clear Tuesday morning that the push to create a new court was to move those cases out of Davidson County for partisan reasons.
He argued Nashville s liberal leanings have created an unbalanced court when compared with more conservative Tennessee overall.

These judges are reflecting a philosophy now, and that s of the people that are electing them.
Both the House and Senate versions were recommended for passage and next head to floor votes. On Monday, the House finance committee approved the proposal.
