Magistrate Judge Hall Nominated to Fill Judicial Vacancy

Earlier today, President Biden nominated Magistrate Judge Jennifer L. Hall to fill the vacancy on the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware that will be created when Judge Andrews takes senior status at the end of this year.

Judge Hall has been serving as a magistrate judge on the Court since 2019 where she has presided over disputes in hundreds of patent cases. Prior to that, she served as an Assistant U.S. Attorney in the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Delaware from 2011 to 2015 and later served as Chief of the office’s Civil Division from 2015 to 2019.  Judge Hall was also a patent litigator at Fish & Richardson in Wilmington and clerked for Judge Jordan on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit and for Judge Prost on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
