Ogden Hoffman, Jr. (October 16, 1822 - August 9, 1891) was a United States federal judge. He was born in New York City, son of Ogden Hoffman. He received an A.B. from Columbia University in 1840 and an LL.B. from Harvard Law School in 1842. He was in private practice in New York City intermittently between 1842and 1850, and in San Francisco, California from 1850 to 1851. On February 1, 1851, Hoffman was nominated by President Millard Fillmore to a new seat on the United States District Court for the Northern District of California created by 9 Stat. 521, following California's admission as a state. Hoffman was confirmed by the United States Senate on February 27, 1851, and received his commission the same day. From August 31, 1852 to January 18, 1854, Hoffman was reassigned to also serve on the United States District Court for the Southern District of California. On July 23, 1866, the districts were abolished, and Hoffman was again reassigned, this time to serve on the newly consolidated United States District Court for the District of California. The district was finally subdivided again on August 5, 1886, and Hoffman was returned to his original seat on the Northern District of California. He served in that capacity until his death on August 9, 1891, over forty years after his initial appointment to that court. His successor, appointed by President Harrison, was former Congressman William W. Morrow. He died in San Francisco, California, and was buried at Mount Tamalpais Cemetery in San Rafael ==Sources== * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ogden Hoffman, Jr.」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
