Bennett Douglas Bell (July 4, 1852 – August 12, 1934) was a justice of the Tennessee Supreme Court from 1908 to 1910.[1]

Born in Sumner County, Tennessee,[1] Bell "received his B.A. and LL.B. degrees from Emory and Henry College in Virginia and Cumberland University and for many years was a prominent member of the Tennessee Bar serving as Attorney General [of Tennessee] and on the bench of the Supreme Court".[2][3] Bell was a circuit judge on the Tennessee Tenth Circuit court from 1902 to 1908.[1] On February 7, 1908, Bell was appointed to a seat on the Tennessee Supreme Court vacated by the death of Justice John S. Wilkes.[1] Bell was elected in August 1908 for the remainder of the term, but was defeated for reelection in a 1910 election that broadly reconstituted the court.[1]

Bell died at his home in Gallatin, Tennessee, at the age of 82.[2]
