Michael Argyle (lawyer)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
His Honour Michael Argyle QC MC (31 August 1915 - 4 January 1999) was a judge at the Central Criminal Court of the United Kingdom from 1970 to 1988. Educated in law at Trinity College, Cambridge, he was an active member of the Conservative Party in his younger life and fought Belper in the 1950 general election.
As a lawyer he rose to fame defending Ronnie Biggs in his trial for the Great Train Robbery. However, he is perhaps best remembered for presiding over the infamous Oz trial.
