Comfort friend over foul play by jury disregarding judge (3,2,6)

'comfort friend' is the definition.
'lap of luxury' can be an answer for 'comfort' (thesaurus). I am unsure of the 'friend' bit.

'foul play by jury disregarding judge' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
an anagram of 'foul' is 'oflu' which is within the answer.
'by' could be 'x' (as in 'multiplied by') and 'x' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'over' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
