HEYBURN II John Gilpin Heyburn II , a federal district judge whose passion for the rule of law made him a leading figure in the governance of the Third Branch, died on April 29, 2015, at his home in Louisville. He was 66. In 1992, Judge Heyburn was appointed to the bench and served as Chief Judge from 2001 to 2008, where he established a reputation for court governance by consensus and an ability to engender camaraderie among fellow judges and enthusiastic participation from staff. Judge Heyburn also led the judiciary in significant national roles that strengthened its independence and improved its handling of complex cases. Judge Heyburn continued his judicial service in spite of a hard-fought battle with cancer over the past few years. Judge Heyburn is survived by his wife, Martha, two sons, Will and Jack, his mother, Frances, sister Frannie Pistell, and brothers, Franklin and Henry.
