Ormr Snorrason (c. 1315–1403) was an Icelander who worked for the Norwegian king as sheriff, lawman and governor.
[1] Ormr inherited Skarð, one of the largest estates in Iceland, after the death of his father in 1332.
[2] Ormr is associated with three important Icelandic manuscripts written at the Helgafell monastery: Codex Scardensis, which he donated to the church at Skarð in 1401; Skarðsbók (AM 350 fol) which contains the legal code Jónsbók; and Ormsbók, a now lost collection of chivalric sagas.
