Federal Court Practice in the Western District of Tennessee
Robert F. Uhlmann of Memphis, TN practices within the geographic jurisdiction of the Western District of Tennessee (WDTN), the United States district court that hears civil and criminal matters arising from Memphis, TN and the surrounding territory comprising the WDTN.
The principal courthouse for the WDTN is located at 167 North Main Street, Memphis, TN 38103 (official court website). Filings in this district are subject to the district's local civil and criminal rules in addition to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure.
Robert F. Uhlmann's entertainment practice in the WDTN typically involves matters governed by the district's entertainment caseload, including pretrial motion practice, discovery scheduling under the district's standing orders, and trial proceedings before an Article III district judge or a magistrate judge by consent of the parties under 28 U.S.C. § 636(c).
Appellate Path: Sixth Circuit
Adverse rulings from federal trial courts in Tennessee are reviewable on direct appeal by the Sixth Circuit, sitting in Cincinnati, OH. Robert F. Uhlmann's federal practice may include direct merits appeals under Fed. R. App. P. 4, petitions for panel rehearing or rehearing en banc under Fed. R. App. P. 35 and 40, and — in qualifying matters — petitions for a writ of certiorari to the Supreme Court of the United States under Sup. Ct. R. 10.
Federal appellate practice differs materially from state-court appellate practice: briefing length, standards of review (de novo, clear error, abuse of discretion, plain error), and oral-argument allotments are governed by the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure and the Sixth Circuit's local circuit rules. Entertainment appeals from the WDTN are docketed at the Sixth Circuit and decided either after oral argument or on the briefs depending on the panel's screening determination.
What Entertainment Practice Looks Like in Tennessee
A entertainment matter in WDTN typically begins with a complaint, indictment, or petition that triggers strict deadlines under the applicable federal rules. Robert F. Uhlmann guides clients through each procedural milestone — initial disclosures, scheduling conferences, dispositive motions, discovery cutoffs, and pretrial conference orders — that distinguish WDTN practice from analogous state-court litigation in Tennessee.
