Albert J. Henderson, a senior judge on the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals since 1986, died of a collapsed lung Tuesday, one day before his retirement party. Friends and collegues call Henderson "a splendid judge, lawyer and friend." In 1979 President Jimmy Carter appointed Henderson to what was then the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. That six-state circuit was divided in 1981, with Georgia, Alabama and Florida forming the new 11th U.S. Circuit. As a Georgian, Henderson went to the 11th Circuit.
