Edgar Demange (1841-1925) was a French jurist. He was, with Fernand Labori, the lawyer of Alfred Dreyfus during his trials in 1894 and 1899.
Biography
Demange was a winner of the national eloquence competition. He became famous by winning the acquittal of prince Pierre Bonaparte, the killer of the Republican Victor Noir in 1870. A specialist in criminal law, he was recognized by his peers and elected a member of the Council of the Order from [1882]] to 1892. Demange and Labori failed to win Alfred Dreyfus' acquittal at either of his trials, though Dreyfus was eventually pardoned by the French President and rehabilitated.
