Keith J. Allred is an American lawyer and officer in the United States Navy.

On June 4, 2007 Allred dismissed all charges against Salim Ahmed Hamdan. Hamdan had been one of the first four Guantanamo captives to face charges before a military commission. It was Hamdan's habeas corpus request, Hamdan v. Rumsfeld, that resulted in the United States Supreme Court ruling that the first version of the Guantanamo military commissions were unconstitutional.

The United States Congress, which the Supreme Court had ruled did have the constitutional authority to institute miliatry commissions passed the Military Commissions Act in the fall of 2006.
