title: Robert Johnson (1745–1833)
text: Robert (Bob) Johnson (1745–1833) was an Irish barrister, politician and judge. He sat in the Irish House of Commons and was a judge of the Court of Common Pleas (Ireland). In 1803 he published a number of attacks on various members of the Irish Government in the form of a series of letters written under the pseudonym "Juverna". The letters caused a major scandal, and after some delay, Johnson was identified as the author. He was prosecuted after a further delay and convicted of seditious libel.
