Francis Edward Sweeney, Sr. (January 24, 1934 – April 10, 2011) [1] was an American politician and jurist of the Ohio Democratic party. He served as a justice on the Ohio Supreme Court[2] from 1993 to 2004. He was barred from running for a third term in 2004 because of his age.

While on the court, he formed a majority coalition with fellow Democrat Alice Robie Resnick and Republicans Paul Pfeifer and Andrew Douglas.

He earned his Juris Doctor from Cleveland-Marshall College of Law in 1963.

Sweeney, played defensive tackle for Xavier as well as in the Canadian Football League and his grandsons (Connor, Zack and Jake) play college football.[3]
