Delfim Modesto Brandão

), also spelled with Galician orthography as Delfín Modesto Brandón, was the penultimate "Juiz" (head of state) of the Couto Misto.

He was followed by one last "Juiz" whose mandate ceased with the partition and formal annexation of the territory by Spain and Portugal on June 23, 1868.

At age 28, he served as "Civil and Governative Judge" (formal title of the heads of state of the Couto Misto), after he was elected to end abuses and breaches of the microstate's sovereignty by Portuguese and Spanish authorities.

These memoirs were published in Spanish in 1907 as Interesante Historieta del Coto Mixto.
