John McKinley (May 1, 1780 – July 19, 1852) was an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. In 15 years on the Court he wrote only 20 opinions.[1] He dissented in the case Bank of Augusta v. Earle - a case where the 8-1 majority overruled an opinion McKinley had written on the circuit court; McKinley believed states could limit business activities to businesses chartered within that state.[2]
