| Notes |
Following his return stateside Wyatt rejoined the firm of Sullivan and Cromwell, but would leave once again in 1953 to accept the position of special assistant in the U.S. Attorney General's office, taking part in cases centered upon conscientious objectors. He remained in this post until 1960, and two years later was appointed by then President John F. Kennedy as U.S. District Judge for the Southern District of New York. After being confirmed Wyatt began a 28 year tenure on the bench, and would assume senior status as a judge after turning 70 in 1977. |
