(January 26, 1832 – August 2, 1924) was an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States who was nominated to the Court by Republican President Benjamin Harrison.
At that time, he had 37 years of private legal practice, but had never judged a case.
Shiras's only public service before he became a justice was as a federal elector in 1888, almost four years before his nomination in 1892.
