John Patrick Hartigan

John Patrick Hartigan (December 29 1887 - August 10 1968) was a longtime federal judge in the United States.

Hartigan was born and spent much of his life in Rhode Island. As an undergraduate, he attended Harvard University before graduating from Brown University; he then obtained simultaneous A.M. and LL.B. degrees from Columbia University. Hartigan spent two decades practicing as a lawyer in Providence, Rhode Island, and served from 1933 to 1939 as the Attorney General of that state.

In 1940, President Franklin D. Roosevelt named Hartigan as a Judge of the United States District Court for the District of Rhode Island, a position he held for 11 years. In 1951, President Harry S Truman promoted Hartigan to the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. Hartigan served as an active judge until 1965, when he assumed senior status. He died in 1968.
