John Malcolm Duhé Jr. (born April 7, 1933, in Iberia Parish, Louisiana), is an inactive Senior United States Circuit Judge of the New Orleans-based United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit.

Duhé is descended from a wealthy old-line Republican family. His grandfather, Jean (pronounced JOHN) Paulin Duhé (May 7, 1885 – May 2, 1961) of New Iberia, was the president of the New Iberia National Bank, head of the Duhe-Bourgeois Sugar Company, president of the Edmundson-Duhe rice mill, third vice-president of the trade association, the American Sugar Cane League, and the president of the St. Martin-Iberia-St. Mary Flood Control Association. Paulin Duhé was the GOP candidate for the Louisiana's 3rd congressional district seat in 1948, having been defeated by the Democrat Edwin E. Willis. J. Paulin Duhe was also an unsuccessful presidential elector candidate in 1960 for Richard M. Nixon and Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. Duhe's former father-in-law was Democratic U.S. Representative F. Edward Hébert of New Orleans, who held Louisiana's 1st congressional district seat from 1941-77. Duhe was married to Hébert's only child, Dawn Marie; the couple had four children.
