Life
Moisés A. Vieites was a lawyer, judicial writer, and Doctor in law from Havana, Cuba. He was a member of the bar association, and a counselor to both the Centro Gallego, and the Merchants Aid Association in that city.

Nobel Prize Nomination
In 1934, Vieites was nominated to the Nobel Prize in Peace for his extensive methodological research in law, which included among other papers, studies in penal legislative procedures, different methods in general law. Prior to his nomination, Vieites had drafted a plan that would end war if it were carried out. The plan itself was the decisive factor for Vieites to become part of the group of nominees for the highly acclaimed prize. The nominator for the Nobel Peace Prize was Pedro Cué y Abreu, a professor in Law at the University of Havana.
