Maryland flags will be at half-staff today as the Honorable Joseph F. Murphy, Jr. (no relation) is laid to rest. As most in the legal universe are aware, Judge Murphy served on the Court of Appeals, was the Chief Judge of the Court of Special Appeals and was a judge in the Circuit Court for Baltimore County. As an interesting local note, Judge Murphy also periodically sat as a visiting judge here in Kent County during the summers. He loved it here and for many years he and his family had a house in Betterton. Judge Murphy was a magnificent judge... and an even better human being. God speed, Judge Joe.
