ANNAPOLIS, MD - Governor Wes Moore today announced the appointment of Kimberly Vicena Lewis to the Prince George’s County District Court.

"Kimberly Lewis has dedicated her life and career to public service. Whenever our state has called on her to serve, she has always answered with a resounding 'yes' - and I am grateful that she has raised her hand once again," said Gov. Moore. "There is no doubt in my mind that Ms. Lewis will continue to honor the rule of law through her new role on the District Court bench."

Kimberly Vicena Lewis currently serves in the Maryland Attorney General’s Office as Special Counsel in the Child Support Division of Department of Human Services, a position she has held since 2018. In this role, she obtains financial support for children and disabled adults.

Prior to her service in the Office of the Attorney General, Lewis spent 21 years as an attorney with the Office of the Public Defender in Prince George’s County, where she managed juvenile cases, drug court cases, in addition to district and circuit court cases. She was also an adjunct professor at Prince George’s Community College where she taught courses in legal writing, research and analysis.

Lewis received her B.S. from The College of William and Mary and her J.D. from the Catholic University of America Columbus School of Law. Following graduation from law school, Lewis clerked for several judges including the Honorable E. Allen Shepherd and the Honorable Arthur M. Ahalt in Prince George’s County Circuit Court and the Honorable Susan Winfield in the Superior Court for the District of Columbia.
