Beaumont’s Provost Humphrey made its entrance into the Dallas legal market in a big way last week by hiring one of the area’s best-known federal judges to head its first Dallas office. U.S. District Judge Joe Kendall will set up the office and hire lawyers for the nationally recognized plaintiffs firm beginning Jan 23. His resignation from the bench will be effective Jan 22. Before he was appointed to the federal bench by President George Bush in 1992, Kendall was a state district judge, a civil litigator and a prosecutor in the Dallas County District Attorney’s Office.
Kendall is an often controversial jurist who made headlines over the past three years while presiding over a case involving an American Airlines pilots strike and the corruption trial of a Dallas city councilman.
