Tribute to a great judge and lawyer


THE entire legal fraternity is mourning the loss of Datuk Seri Gopal Sri Ram (pic), who left the surly bonds of earth on Jan 29.

He was a distinguished former judge of the Court of Appeal and the Federal Court from 1994 to 2010. He was also a greatly admired senior lawyer and pioneering constitutional jurist. Many have spoken of his unfailing willingness to share his knowledge with whoever was willing to drink from his fountain of wisdom.
