Sir Arthur Kekewich (26 July 1832 – 22 November 1907) was an English barrister and High Court judge. The frequency at which his opinions were appealed has given rise to many stories, though according to a modern assessment he "seems to have been a man who has suffered unfairly in the public reputation and [his] appointment was one which was unlucky rather than discreditable."
