Federal Judge for the Northern District of Texas, Jerry Buchmeyer, is a name very familiar to all Texas attorneys for his monthly column entitled "et cetera" which is published in the Texas Bar Journal, and recounts all those embarrassing mistakes that attorneys and witnesses make during trials and depositions. He was found by members of the Dallas Police Department at 5:30 a.m. on Friday morning, "slurring his words, had scratch wounds on his arms and legs, and his lips were slightly purplish." He was transported to a local hospital. Another judge who visited Judge Buchmeyer on Saturday at the hospital stated that the Judge's condition had improved. Here is hoping that Judge Buchmeyer recovers fully and experiences no further difficulties.
