The legal community and a far wider community has mourned the loss of Judge Michael Juviler (NYLJ, Jan. 25). When describing an uncommonly talented jurist to whom other judges looked up, we might refer to “a judges’ judge”, and Michael was surely that.
But he was a good deal more. When in practice he was “a lawyers’ lawyer;” in the courtroom he was “a jurors’ judge” and in all, a judge for the defendant, the prosecution, the litigant, and ultimately the public. All knew that he would be, and always was, consummately fair, thoughtful, and scholarly; qualities that mark the best of judges.
