JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — Friends and colleagues of retired U.S. District Judge L.T. Senter — who presided over numerous insurance cases that arose from Hurricane Katrina — are remembering him as a jurist who ruled fairly and with integrity.
Just weeks after he stepped down from the bench, Senter died at age 77 Wednesday in the emergency room of North Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo, said Lee County Coroner Carolyn Green.
“He was a very intellectual judge, but he did not take himself too seriously. He was always kind to the lawyers and the litigants,” said U.S. District Chief Judge Michael Mills.
