Sir John Fitzjames (c. 1465/70 – c. 1542) was Lord Chief Justice of the King's Bench from 1526 until 1539.
Sir John was a nephew of Richard Fitzjames, Bishop of London during the Hunne case.
Sir John had also been Recorder of Bristol, Attorney-General and Chief Baron of the Exchequer.
"[1] Later in that same month, when the King's chief minister, Thomas Cromwell, wanted to halt the export of coin he decided to consult Fitzjames on whether a proclamation could be used for this.
He married, after 1514, (as her second husband) Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Humphrey Coningsby, Knt., (c1450-1535) Judge of King's Bench, by his spouse Alice Ferriby.
