President Joe Biden has revealed his intention to nominate four candidates to federal circuit and district courts, furthering his commitment to judicial diversity and excellence. Among these nominees is Judge Embry J. Kidd, a distinguished African-American judge hailing from the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida.
A graduate of Yale University’s esteemed law school, Kidd has demonstrated his legal acumen and commitment to justice since his appointment to the bench on July 25, 2019. Should his nomination proceed, Kidd would ascend to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, bringing his wealth of experience and perspective to this esteemed role.
In addition to Judge Kidd, President Biden’s nominations encompass Judges Adam B. Abelson, Joseph F. Saporito, and Meredith A. Vacca, poised to fill vacancies within district courts spanning Maryland, Pennsylvania, and New York.
