Hans Arthur Linde, (born 1924) is a German-American attorney and former jurist in the U.S. state of Oregon. Born in Germany, he also lived with his family in Denmark before immigrating to Portland, Oregon. After serving in the United States Army during World War II he graduated from college and law school. Linde then worked for Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas, the United States Department of State, and as a law professor at the University of Oregon School of Law before appointment to the Oregon Supreme Court. He served on the court from 1977 to 1990 and is now a distinguished scholar in residence at Willamette University College of Law in Salem.

Career

Linde was born on April 15, 1924 in Berlin, Germany, to Bruno C. (judge and attorney) and Louise Linde. He married Helen Tucker on August 13, 1945; they are the parents of Lisa (1955) and David Linde [ [http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr/interviews/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1980627 David Linde] ] (1960).

Hans Linde was schooled in Copenhagen, Denmark (from 1933 to 1939); his family then moved to Portland, Oregon. He earned a B.A. from Reed College in 1947, after army service in World War II, and a J.D. from the University of California at Berkeley Boalt Hall in 1950. He was a member of Phi Beta Kappa, Order of the Coif and served as the editor-in-chief of the "California Law Review" (1949-1950) (see Notes, 36 Cal. L. Rev. 628 (1948) & 37 Cal. L. Rev. 129 (1949)). He was admitted to practice law in Oregon in 1950.

Linde was a law clerk to Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas, 1950-51, during which time the Court handed down "Dennis v. United States" [ [http://www.firstamendmentcenter.org/faclibrary/case.aspx?case=Dennis_v_US Dennis v. United States] (1951) (Douglas, J., dissenting)] and "Feiner v. New York". [ [http://www.firstamendmentcenter.org/faclibrary/case.aspx?case=Feiner_v_NY Feiner v. New York] (1951) (Douglas, J., dissenting)] He then worked as an attorney in the Office of the Legal Adviser to the Department of State and Adviser to the United States Delegation to the United Nations General Assembly (1951-53). Afterwards he was a Legislative Assistant to U.S. Senator Richard L. Neuberger, 1955-1958. Linde was Associate Professor and Professor of Law at the University of Oregon in 1954 and 1959-76, and has been a visiting professor in the law schools at U.C.L.A., Stanford, New York University, University of Texas, and a Fulbright lecturer in Freiburg and Hamburg, as well as at Willamette University. His publications include a coursebook in Legislative and Administrative Processes and more than 75 articles, lectures, and reviews.

Justice Linde served on the Oregon Supreme Court from 1977 to 1990. He was appointed by Governor Robert W. Straub to a term beginning January 3, 1977 and was elected in 1978 and re-elected in 1984. His term expired on December 3, 1990.

He was a member of Oregon's Commission on Constitutional Revision in 1961-63, and currently serves on the Oregon Law Commission. He is a member of the Council of the American Law Institute and a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

Both with his scholarly articles and judicial opinions, Linde played a leading role in the rediscovery of state constitutions and state law as sources of protection for individual rights and limitations on government power.
