Arístides Maragliano

Arístides Maragliano is referred to as the 'unknown Justice' since very little is known about this Spanish-born member of Puerto Rico's highest court under Spanish rule, the 'Audiencia Territorial'. He is also the only Spaniard who was appointed to the highest court under American rule. It is believed that he was appointed on October 27, 1898, the same day that José Severo Quiñones and José Conrado Hernández were appointed magistrates. For unknown reasons, he resigned on March 17, 1899.
