Anthony Adgent, 60, was arrested on charges of disorderly conduct, assault and vandalism after a fight at the Stirrup bar, located on Fourth Avenue South.

Adgent is an administrative law judge based in Nashville who presides over cases involving state agencies.

According to the report, Adgent was asked to leave the bar for being disorderly but would not leave and put his finger in the bartender's face.

Bartender DeMarko Smith said the judge, who he suspects was drunk, grabbed him, pinned him against the wall and hit him.

"I told him, 'Just let me go. You have an opportunity to walk out of that door, right now.' He let me go, and when I stepped this way, that's when he hit me in the face," said Smith.

Witnesses said Adgent also hit a customer in the jaw and broke a sign before having to be pushed out of the bar by four customers.

According to the bartender and witnesses, when Adgent made his way outside the bar, he told them he was a judge and that would keep him out of trouble.

The judge has been practicing law in Nashville since 1994.

The judge will appear in court next month. After the hearing, the secretary of state will determine if the judge will be reprimanded.
