Andrew Jackson Higgins (June 21, 1921 – September 14, 2011) was a judge on the Supreme Court of Missouri between 1979 and 1991, and its Chief Justice from 1985 to 1987. Previously, he had served as a commissioner for the Supreme Court between 1964 and 1979, and as Circuit Court Judge for Platte County from 1960 to 1964.[1]

Zel Fischer, a current Judge of the Supreme Court of Missouri, clerked for Judge Higgins from 1988 to 1989; Judge Higgins administered Judge Fischer's oath.[2]

After retiring from the bench, Judge Higgins joined the law firm Inglish & Monaco, P.C., in Jefferson City, Missouri. He practiced and was then Of Counsel until his death.

Higgins also became an advocate against plans to change the way Missouri selects its judges.[3]
