TWO PROMINENT JURISTS CALLED AWAY IN DEATH
Two prominent jurists, Joseph M. Friedman, 40, and Judge T. Alan Goldsborough, died only a few hours apart recently, the former in Hartford, Conn. and the latter in Washington.
The lawyer and judge both had been directly involved in two contempt actions against John L. Lewis’s United Mine Workers in 1946 and 1948, resulting in multi-million dollar fines because of the union’s failure to comply with back-to-work orders issued by a local district court.
Heart complications were contributing factors in both deaths.
