'Thoughtful Jurist': Maryland US District Senior Judge Messitte Dies After Short Illness

Mayer Brown partners Nancy Ross and Reginald Goeke, who represented Lockheed Martin Corp. in an active case before Messitte, appreciated the judge’s commitment to jurisprudence. “We express our sincere condolences to Judge Messitte’s family and loved ones,” Ross and Goeke said Tuesday in a joint statement. “The Judge was a thoughtful jurist who worked tirelessly to reach an equitable result in the matters before him. His presence in the courtroom will be missed.”
