Marc Lemieux Biography – Marc Lemieux Wiki
Marc Lemieux (Marc C. Lemieux) is a judge of the Superior Court in Monmouth County. He has served as assignment judge for the Monmouth Vicinage since June 2023. He was named by New Jersey Chief Justice Stuart Rabner as the county’s top judge, following the death of Assignment Judge Lisa P. Thornton, who passed away on May 26, 2023, at age 59, after 15 years on the bench, the last nine as assignment judge.
“The Monmouth Vicinage and the State Judiciary lost a true leader. We miss Judge Thornton’s indomitable spirit and know that her influence and vision will continue to guide the work of the vicinage for years to come,” Chief Justice Stuart Rabner said in a statement naming Lemieux to succeed Thornton.
“In selecting the next assignment judge, we cannot look to replace Judge Thornton. All we can do is move forward with the same level of dedicated service to the public that the Monmouth Vicinage is known for. I have every confidence that Judge Marc Lemieux will live up to that noble aim.”
“I am humbled to take on this new role,” Judge Lemieux said. “Judge Thornton was a dear friend and the consummate professional. We will work hard to honor her legacy.”
Judge Lemieux was nominated by former governor Chris Christie and joined the bench in August 2017. He began his judicial career in the civil division in the Monmouth Vicinage and moved in July 2019 to the criminal division, where he was named the presiding judge in September 2021.
Prior to joining the bench, Judge Lemieux was a career prosecutor, starting out in the Monmouth County Prosecutor’s office as a law clerk in 1996. He served in positions of assistant prosecutor, head of the prosecutor’s family division, head of the major crimes bureau and director of investigations before becoming second in command of the office as first assistant prosecutor in 2014.
