William Howard Billings was a judge of the Supreme Court of Missouri. Prior to his appointment by then-Governor Kit Bond, he had been a member of the Missouri Court of Appeals in Springfield, and before that a circuit court judge; both times he was appointed by Democratic Governor Warren Hearnes.〔Terry Ganey, "William H. Billings, Supreme Court judge appointed in 1982; Was to retire in August." ''St. Louis Post-Dispatch''. May 24, 1991.〕 Judge Billings was noted for his hard work ethic and his unwavering dedication to upholding the highest standards expected of judges; however, he was found by a federal judge to have violated the court's canon of ethics by telephoning an expert without the consent of the parties' attorneys.〔 He was also a staunch opponent of allowing cameras into courtrooms,〔Tim Poor, "Cameras seek day in court; Electronic coverage stirs interest and controversy." ''St. Louis Post-Dispatch''. Jul. 23, 1990.〕 and once threw out two journalists from the Missouri Supreme Court Building.〔 He died less than two months before he was supposed to retire, under Missouri's age limit for judges. ==References== 〔
