He gained admission to the bar in California in January 1878, and moved to Eureka, Nevada. There he entered into the private practice of law until 1887, when he was elected as a Democrat to a Nevada state district court judgeship. Fitzgerald "attained national prominency in 1896, when he espoused the silver cause and wrote a book on the money question". After fourteen years as a district court judge, he was elected to the Nevada Supreme Court, carrying every county and receiving the largest vote on either ticket. He served in this capacity for six years, declining renomination. Fitzgerald died at the home of his son Robert in Boston, Massachusetts, at the age of eighty. (en)
