Cearbhall Ó Dálaigh (born Carroll O'Daly; 12 February 1911 – 21 March 1978) was an Irish barrister, judge and Fianna Fáil politician who served as the president of Ireland from December 1974 to October 1976. Following a breakdown in relations with the government intensified by remarks made by a senior minister, he was the first president of Ireland to resign from office. A trained barrister and accomplished scholar of Irish literature and language, Ó Dálaigh became Éamon de Valera's protégé in the 1930s. He was appointed Attorney General in 1946 and a Supreme Court justice in 1953, the youngest-ever holder of either position at the time. He was promoted to Chief Justice of Ireland in 1961, and presided over a period of greater assertiveness on the part of the Irish judiciary. In 1973, he became the first Irish judge to sit on the European Court of Justice. More information...
