John Williams Green (November 9, 1781 – February 4, 1834) was a Virginia lawyer, soldier, plantation owner, politician and judge.
His grandfather Colonel John Green fought in the American Revolutionary War.
[4] Green resigned his part-time senate seat in 1819 upon being elected to the Court of Chancery.
[5] Three years later, the legislature elected Green as a judge of the Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals.
As a result, the Virginia General Assembly began considering removing Judge Green from office, before his death on February 4, 1834, made those considerations moot.
