Senators recommended Judge Rubin to President Joe Biden
Today, U.S. Senators Chris Van Hollen and Ben Cardin (both D-Md.) praised the Judiciary Committee’s bipartisan approval of Judge Julie Rubin to serve as U.S. District Court Judge for the District of Maryland.
“We are pleased that the Judiciary Committee favorably recommended Judge Julie Rubin,” the senators said. “Judge Rubin brings tremendous experience to the federal bench having served as a Baltimore City Circuit Judge for nearly a decade, where she handles a busy and diverse caseload in our state court. We’ll be pushing for her swift approval by the full Senate in the coming weeks, and we look forward to her continued public service to Marylanders in upholding the rule of law and providing equal justice for all.”
Judge Rubin was nominated to fill the future vacancy created when Judge Ellen Hollander, appointed by President Obama in 2011, announced her intention in January 2021 to take senior status. President Joe Biden nominated Judge Rubin for this vacancy on November 3, and the Judiciary Committee held hearingconfirmation hearing on December 15. The ABA Standing Committee on the Federal Judiciary unanimously rated her “well qualified” to serve in the federal judiciary, the highest possible rating. The ABA evaluates the integrity, professional competence, and judicial temperament of nominees.
