BOSTON – In the wake of Judge William G. Young announcing his intention to retire from regular active service as a United States District Court Judge, United States Senators Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Edward J. Markey (D-Mass.) reconvened a bipartisan advisory committee last month to review and provide additional recommendations on federal District Court candidates from across Massachusetts. 

Candidates interested in applying for a U.S. District Court nomination who have not previously applied this year must submit their applications to the Advisory Committee by Tuesday, April 27, 2021. 

“The Advisory Committee plays a critical role in ensuring that highly qualified, fair-minded judges are appointed to the federal district courts in the Commonwealth,” said Senators Warren and Markey. “We look forward to receiving the Committee’s recommendations.”
