Roger George Connor (April 23, 1926 – July 4, 1999) was a justice of the Alaska Supreme Court from December 2, 1968, to May 1, 1983.
Connor served in the United States Navy during World War II.[1] He was one of sixteen applicants announced as having passed the Alaska state bar examination on March 1, 1955.[2] In April 1956, he was named acting United States district attorney of Alaska's first division.[3] The following month, President Dwight D. Eisenhower formally named Connor to be the United States attorney for that division.[1][4] On April 23, 1959, Eisenhower accepted Connor's resignation from the post.[5]
In 1968, the Alaska Supreme Court was expanded from three justices to five, and the two new seats were filled by the appointments of Connor and George F. Boney.[6] In November 1982, Connor was injured in a car accident in which he was struck by a drunk driver,[7] which ultimately led to his resignation from the court in May 1983.[8]
