SUPREME COURT WINDOW HONORS JUSTICE PRINGLE

the Supreme Court

A beautiful new stained glass window graces the courtroom of the Colorado Supreme Court in Denver. Pictured on the window (shown above right), which was unveiled at a ceremony in September, is former Justice Edward Pringle. Pringle was appointed to the high court in 1961 and served as chief justice from 1965-66 and again in 1970 until his retirement in 1978. The window received lots of press; an editorial in The Denver Post remarked ". . . the judge never let his high station or extensive scholarship separate him from the common run of men. He made it a habit to hang out in the Capitol pressroom over lunch hours, where he would patiently and thoroughly explain the court's rulings or other points of law to reporters." The window was paid for by donations and was made by artists at Creative Stained Glass Studio.
