    About the Harvard professor Stephen Sewall academic persons with a similar name Stephen Sewell disambiguation Stephen Sewell Stephen Sewall December 14, 1702 September 10, 1760 was a judge in Province of Massachusetts Bay colonial Massachusetts . Born in Salem, Massachusetts , he was the son of Stephen Sewall, the clerk of court at the Salem witch trials Salem witchcraft trials , and a nephew of Chief Justice Samuel Sewall , who presided at the witchcraft trials. He was the uncle of lawyer Jonathan Sewall . Although never formally trained as a lawyer or admitted to the bar, he was appointed as Chief Justice of the Massachusetts Superior Court , the highest court in the colony. He also served on the Massachusetts Council , which was then the upper house of the Massachusetts General Court . He was generally respected by both friends the court party and foes the popular party of royal government. Sewall s death in Boston in 1760 was followed by controversy. James Otis, Jr. believed that his father, James Otis, Sr. , had been promised the office of chief justice, but Governor Sir Francis Bernard, 1st Baronet Francis Bernard appointed Crown supporter Thomas Hutchinson governor Thomas Hutchinson instead, creating a political rift that would have important implications in the development of the American Revolution . While Sewall had expressed doubts about the legality of writs of assistance , which were controversial general search warrants, Hutchinson authorized them over the objections of Otis in the famous writs of assistance case of 1761.
