District Court Judge, Randolph Moss, Confirmed by the Senate Today | 2014-11-13 | 2014 | 2014-11 | Democrat | House | DC | Eleanor Norton | N000147 | norton.house.gov | legacy | WASHINGTON, D.C – The Office of Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC) announced that Randolph Moss, Norton’s recommendation for the U.S. District Court of the District of Columbia, was confirmed by the Senate today. Norton recommended Moss to President Obama. Moss, a graduate of Yale Law School and an editor of the Law Review, served in the Clinton administration as an Assistant Attorney General for the Office of Legal Counsel, and is the current chair of the Regulatory and Government Affairs Department at law firm Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP. “Randolph Moss is a seasoned lawyer with a stellar reputation as a litigator,” Norton said. “His extensive experience, particularly in constitutional, administrative, and commercial litigation, will make him a valuable addition to our district court.” President Obama, like President Clinton, granted Norton senatorial courtesy to recommend candidates for federal district court judges and other important federal law enforcement officials in the District. The Congresswoman recommended Moss from a number of candidates screened by her Federal Law Enforcement Nominating Commission, chaired by Pauline Schneider, a special counsel at Ballard Spahr LLP and a former president of the D.C. Bar. President Obama has nominated and the Senate has confirmed eight of Norton’s other recommendations for district court judges – Ketanji Brown Jackson, Amy Berman Jackson, James E. Boasberg, Rudolph Contreras, Beryl A. Howell, Casey Cooper, Tanya Chutkan, and Robert Wilkins, who was the first of Norton’s recommendations to President Obama. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
