Allen Richard Derr (April 5, 1928 – June 10, 2013) was an American lawyer who won Reed v. Reed, a landmark United States Supreme Court decision issued in 1971 who strengthened anti-discrimination protections for women. The Supreme Court ruled unanimously for Derr's client, Sally Reed, who sued her estranged husband, Cecil, over who should administer the estate of their late son following his suicide. Derr argued before the Court that the 14th Amendment of the United States Constitution forbid discrimination on the basis of gender. On November 22, 1971, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously in favor Derr's client, Sally Reed, in a decision written by Chief Justice Warren Burger.
