List of federal judges appointed by Theodore Roosevelt


Following is a list of all United States federal judges appointed by President Theodore Roosevelt during his presidency. In total Roosevelt appointed 74 federal judges, a record for his day surpassing the 46 appointed by Ulysses S. Grant. These included three Justices to the Supreme Court of the United States, 18 judges to the United States Courts of Appeals, and 53 judges to the United States district courts.

Five of Roosevelt's appointees - George Bethune Adams, Thomas H. Anderson, and Robert W. Archbald, Andrew McConnell January Cochran, and Benjamin Franklin Keller, were originally placed on their respective courts as recess appointments by President William McKinley. Following the assassination which resulted in McKinley's death on September 14, 1901, Roosevelt chose to formally nominate those judges for confirmation by the United States Senate, and all were confirmed.
