Denham Arthur Kelsey (born October 9, 1961) is a Virginia lawyer and Justice of the Supreme Court of Virginia. His twelve-year term on the Supreme Court began on February 1, 2015.〔http://www.newsleader.com/story/news/local/2015/03/07/extraordinary-justice-sworn-high-court/24560579/〕 Kelsey was previously a judge of the Court of Appeals of Virginia. ==Biography== Kelsey was born in Suffolk, Virginia. He graduated from Old Dominion University in 1982 and obtained his law degree from the College of William & Mary in 1985.〔 He then clerked for the Honorable John Ashton MacKenzie, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Virginia.〔 After several years in private practice, including as a partner at Hunton & Williams, Kelsey was elected to be a circuit judge for the Fifth Judicial District of Virginia, based in Suffolk, in 2000.〔 He was appointed by Governor Mark R. Warner to the Virginia Court of Appeals in August 2002, to fill a vacancy created by the retirement of Judge Robert S. Bray. He was subsequently elected by the General Assembly for an eight-year term in 2003 and re-elected in 2011. Kelsey previously sought election to the Supreme Court in 2008 (to fill the vacancy created when former Justice G. Steven Agee resigned upon his appointment to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit),〔 and in 2011 (to fill the vacancy created when Senior Justice Lawrence Koontz retired).〔 He was originally the only candidate under consideration to fill the vacancy created by the retirement of former Justice Cynthia D. Kinser in 2015, but his candidacy suffered a temporary setback when Republican members of the state Senate objected to the lack of choice for the Kinser seat and two vacancies on the Court of Appeals. The Senate delayed the election to interview additional candidates to fill the vacancies. It ultimately agreed with the House of Delegates and the General Assembly unanimously elected Kelsey to the Supreme Court on January 20, 2015, for a twelve-year term beginning the following February 1.〔 Kelsey serves as an adjunct professor at the Marshall-Wythe School of Law, College of William & Mary, and Regent University School of Law.
