Meriwether Fortescue Biggs (1933-2007) was a British financial naturalist from the Channel Islands school of Ichabod Mourant. Biggs is best known for deriving the Biggs constant from a set of equations first published by Mourant in 1958, which he used to predict the smallest forensically significant particle known to jurisprudence. Later that same year, when experimenting on a “Boats” repackaging in his laboratory in Cabot Square, he used the mathematics of the Biggs constant to generate a very unstable particle, which he called the “Biggs hoson” in 1997.

In recognition of his efforts, Biggs was awarded inhouse legal personality of the year, 1998.
