Manuel Vicente Moran y Palisoc (October 27, 1893 – August 23, 1961), more commonly known as Manuel V. Moran, was the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the Philippines from July 9, 1945, until March 20, 1951.

Moran graduated from his Bachelor of Laws degree at Escuela de Manila and was admitted to the bar in 1913.

He started out as an auxiliary judge of Iloilo and Pampanga before being promoted as a full judge, and later, an Associate Justice of the Court of Appeals.

[2] After leaving office, he became the first Philippine Ambassador to Spain and the Holy See.

Hoping to be appointed again to the Supreme Court, he was extended an ad interim appointment of outgoing president Elpidio Quirino in 1953, but Moran backed out, for he felt that President-elect Ramon Magsaysay would fill such vacancy.
