Cabinet of José María Linares

The Linares Cabinet constituted the 24th cabinet of the Bolivian Republic. It was formed on 9 December 1857, 91 days after José María Linares was installed as the 13th president of Bolivia following a coup d'état, succeeding the Córdova Cabinet. It was dissolved on 14 January 1861 upon Linares' overthrow in another coup d'état and was succeeded by a Government Junta.

History
Upon his assumption to office, Linares charged all ministerial portfolios to Ruperto Fernández as secretary general pending the formation of a proper ministerial cabinet. A full council of ministers was appointed on 9 December 1857, three months later, composed of four ministers. In this cabinet, a new ministry, the Ministry of Development, was established.

Two future presidents, José María de Achá (1861–1864) and Tomás Frías (1872–1873; 1874–1876) were members of this cabinet.
