The United States District Court for the District of Ohio was created by Congress in 1803[1]. In 1855, Ohio was divided into Northern and Southern Districts, which it retains to this day[1]. At the time of that division, the law provided that the judge who had been serving the District of Ohio, Humphrey Howe Leavitt, would be reassigned to the Southern District, and a new judge would be nominated to serve the Northern District[1],[2].
