  Julius Hoffman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Julius Hoffman (July 7, 1895 – July 1, 1983) was a Chicago, Illinois native attorney and judge best known for his role in the Chicago Seven trial.
On May 11, 1972, the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals reversed all of the contempt convictions, and on November 21, 1972 reversed all of the jury convictions, because the court had not sufficiently measured the biases of the jury and because of Judge Hoffman's "deprecatory and often antagonistic attitude toward the defense".
In 1982, the Executive Committee of the U.S. District Court ordered that Hoffman not be assigned any new cases because of his age and complaints that he was acting erratically and abusively from the bench.

 St. James Encyclopedia of Pop Culture: Abbie Hoffman
Hoffman and seven others stood trial as "the Chicago Eight" for conspiring to incite the riot, though after Black Panther Bobby Seale was remanded for separate trial by Judge Julius Hoffman, the Chicago Seven (which included Rubin and other Yippies and anti-war activists) achieved nationwide notoriety.
Though Judge Hoffman issued 175 contempt citations during the trial, the seven were ultimately found innocent and other charges of "crossing State lines to incite a riot" were dropped on appeal in 1973.
Hoffman's public stunts secured his lasting reputation as a spirited activist, cemented by the wide circulation of his books.
