Crossing the Line: Does the Georgia Plan to Redraw the Tennessee-Georgia Border Pass Legal Muster? The Tennessee Bar Journal highlights an article entitled "Crossing the Line: Does the Georgia plan to redraw the Tennessee-Georgia border pass legal muster?", written by Miller & Martin attorneys, Crews Townsend, Zac Greene, Alison Martin, Bob Parsley, and Joseph McCoin. "Georgia and Tennessee are fighting a war of words. Recently, the Georgia Legislature passed a resolution reciting that "the northern border of the State of Georgia and the southern border of the States of North Carolina and Tennessee lies at the 35th parallel, north of the southernmost bank of the Tennessee River."[1] In so reciting, Georgia declares that its northern border with Tennessee is incorrectly drawn. The resolution goes on to create Georgia-North Carolina and Georgia-Tennessee boundary-line commissions designed to "meet with similar commissions of the States of North Carolina and Tennessee to establish, survey and proclaim the true boundary lines between Georgia and North Carolina and between Georgia and Tennessee."[2] Were the Georgia-Tennessee state line moved to precisely follow the 35th parallel, the line would be shifted northward to points over a mile north of its present location."
