Frederick Solomon Nave (January 7, 1873 – September 27, 1912) was an American jurist. Shortly after graduation from law school, he moved to Arizona Territory for health reasons. There he was appointed to serve on a committee created to overhaul the territorial legal code. Nave then served as a county attorney and United States Attorney before being appointed an Associate Justice on the Arizona Territorial Supreme Court. His health problems prompted an early resignation from the territorial bench and he practiced law for several years before his death at age 39.
Nave was born to Orville James and Anna Eliza (Semans) Nave in Lewis Center, Ohio on January 7, 1873. He graduated from Ohio Wesleyan University in 1895 and was elected to the Phi Beta Kappa Society. Nave then completed a law degree at Northwestern University in 1897 and was a member of the Delta Chi Fraternity. While studying law, he taught Greek and Latin at an academy affiliated with the university. Following graduation, Nave accepted a promising position with a law firm in Chicago.
Suffering from tuberculosis, Nave moved to Arizona Territory in 1898 for health reasons. Settling initially in the Phoenix area, he was admitted to the Arizona bar on February 23, 1898. In March 1899, Nave was appointed as the clerk for a committee created to overhaul the territorial legal code. The commission's work served as the basis of the 1901 revision of the Arizona legal code. In 1900, Nave was elected Santa Cruz County attorney. About the same time he moved to Nogales. Nave was appointed as a United States Attorney on January 8, 1902.
