Edmund James Lawson, QC (17 April 1948 – 26 March 2009) was a prominent English barrister who worked on high-profile cases. ==Personal life== The only son of Donald and Veronica Lawson, he was born and grew up in Norwich, but also spent several of his childhood years in Ireland. He attended City of Norwich School and, although he excelled in Latin, decided to read law at University (for want, in his words, of a "better option"). He attended Trinity Hall, Cambridge,〔(Trinity Hall News )〕 where he participated in rugby union and punting. He graduated in 1970. While at Cambridge, he met his first wife Jennifer Cleary, with whom he had three sons. They were divorced in 2002, and in 2003 Lawson married Christina Russell, a barrister at his chambers, with whom he already had two children and a stepson, and this marriage produced a further son and daughter. He was a keen musician, playing violin and viola, and with a penchant for the music of Bach and Mozart (as well as the earlier works of the Rolling Stones), and latterly was an active supporter and sponsor of the Nash Ensemble, the acclaimed chamber music ensemble. He was also an avid fan of rugby union, regularly attending England internationals either at Twickenham or abroad, and was also a supporter of Harlequins RFC. In January 2009, Lawson suffered the first of a series of strokes which left him severely incapacitated, and on 26 March he died peacefully of pneumonia. He was 60. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Edmund Lawson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
