'''Gabriel Duvall''' (December 6, 1752 – March 6, 1844) was an [[Associate Justice]] of the [[Supreme Court of the United States]]. He was an ally of [[Chief Justice]] [[John Marshall]] on the Court, perhaps surprising his nominator.<ref name="oyez">{{cite web|url=http://www.oyez.org/justices/gabriel_duvall|title=Gabriel Duvall|format=HTML|language=English|work=Oyez|publisher=Chicago-Kent School of Law}}</ref>
Duvall rarely wrote opinions, but one memorable dissent was in the case ''Mima Queen and Child v. Hepburn''. An [[abolitionist|opponent of slavery]], Duvall disagreed with the majority's ruling that [[hearsay]] evidence should not be allowed in determining whether a slave is free.<ref name="oyez"/><ref>{{cite web|title=Gabriel Duvall - Maryland, Court, Admitted, Served, Freedom, and President|url=http://law.jrank.org/pages/6324/Duvall-Gabriel.html|format=HTML|language=English|work=law.jrank}}</ref>
