Isakson Applauds Brown's Judicial Confirmation to Northern District of Georgia

Michael Brown confirmed by Senate today

WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Johnny Isakson, R-Ga., today applauded the U.S. Senate’s confirmation of Michael L. Brown of Atlanta, Ga., as a judge to the Northern District of Georgia by a vote of 92-0. On Wednesday, Isakson spoke on the floor of the Senate in support of Brown’s nomination.

“Michael Brown is a great lawyer, federal prosecutor and outstanding citizen of our state whose experience will serve him well on the federal bench,” said Isakson. “I gave him my highest recommendation at his confirmation hearing, and I applaud him and the Senate on his confirmation.”

Brown is a former assistant U.S. attorney in both Georgia and Florida. He co-leads the government and internal investigations team as a practicing attorney with Alston & Bird LLP.

Previously, Isakson introduced Brown before his hearing in the Senate Committee on the Judiciary on Sept. 20, 2017.
