David Llewelyn Jenkins, Baron Jenkins {{post-nominals|country=GBR|PC}} (8 April 1899 – 21 July 1969)[1] was a British judge.

Early life and education

Born in Exmouth, he was the third son of Sir John Lewis Jenkins and his wife Florence Mildred, second daughter of Sir Arthur Trevor.[2] Jenkins was educated at Charterhouse School and fought then with the 12th Battalion, Rifle Brigade (Prince Consort's Own) in the First World War.[3] After the war, he went to Balliol College, Oxford, and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in 1920, winning the Hertford and Ireland scholarship.[3] Jenkins was called to the bar by Lincoln's Inn three years later and made his Master of Arts in 1928.[3]

Career

He was made a King's Counsel in 1938 and subsequently served in the Royal Army Service Corps during the Second World War.[3] In 1945, he became a bencher[7] and in 1946 he was nominated Attorney-General of the Duchy of Lancaster.[4] Jenkins joined the High Court of Justice, Chancery Division in 1947 and on this occasion was created a Knight Bachelor.[3] Two years later he was appointed a Lord Justice of Appeal and on 31 May 1949 sworn of the Privy Council.[5] After another decade he was chosen a Lord of Appeal in Ordinary and in consequence was created a life peer under the Appellate Jurisdiction Act 1876 as Baron Jenkins, of Ashley Gardens, in the City of Westminster.[6] He chaired the Jenkins Committee on Company Law and in 1953 became governor of Sutton's Hospital in Charterhouse.[3]

He was unmarried and died childless.[5]
