Female state supreme court justices

Below is a list of the names of the first woman to sit on the highest court of their respective states in the United States.

The first state with a female justice was Ohio; Florence E. Allen was named to the bench in 1923.

Only a few times over the course of history has the percentage of women on the highest court in any state been greater than the percentage of men. Currently, the United States Supreme Court has the highest percentage of women Justices it has ever had, yet there has still never been a majority. In New Mexico, as of November 12, 2015, with the appointment of Justice Judith Nakamura, the New Mexican Supreme Court has a female minority-majority, a first in New Mexico and possibly a first in the United States.
