Idaho Judge Pinch Hits in Yosemite
Interesting story in the New York Times earlier this week about Idaho federal Magistrate Judge Larry Boyle.
Who'd a thunk it, but the majestic national park at Yosemite in northern California has a federal courthouse. When the previous federal judge, who typically hears misdemeanor cases - guns, drugs and alcohol in the park - was forced to resign for health reasons, Judge Boyle offered to sub until a permanent replacement could be named. The judge and Beverly Boyle recently finished a two-week stint dispensing justice in what His Honor calls "the Garden of Eden"
Boyle was an eastern Idaho District Judge and a member of the Idaho Supreme Court before his appointment as a federal magistrate in 1992.
