Edward J. Lodge (born December 3, 1933) is a Senior Judge on the United States District Court for the District of Idaho in Boise, Idaho.
Born in Caldwell, Idaho, Lodge graduated from Caldwell High School and briefly attended the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana. He was a two-time junior college All-American quarterback at Boise Junior College in 1953 and 1954. He earned his bachelor's degree from the College of Idaho in Caldwell in 1957, and graduated from the University of Idaho's College of Law in Moscow in 1961.
Following law school, Lodge practiced law in Idaho from 1962 to 1963. He began his long judicial career in 1963 as a Probate Judge in Canyon County, and in 1965 became the youngest ever appointed to a district court in Idaho, at age 31. Lodge served for nearly a quarter century as a district judge for the state's Third Judicial District in Canyon County, and presided at the double-murder trial of mountainman Claude Dallas in 1982, a case which received national notoriety. He was later appointed as a U.S. Bankruptcy Judge for the District of Idaho from 1988 to 1989.
