Algenon L. Marbley (born September 19, 1954) is a United States District Judge for the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio.
Born in Morehead City, North Carolina, Marbley received a B.A. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1976 and a J.D. from the Northwestern University School of Law in 1979. He was in private practice of law in Chicago, Illinois from 1979 to 1980. He was an Assistant regional attorney of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services from 1980 to 1986, returning to private practice in Columbus, Ohio from 1986 to 1997.
On July 31, 1997, Marbley was nominated by President Bill Clinton to a seat on the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio vacated by John David Holschuh. Marbley was confirmed by the United States Senate on October 27, 1997, and received his commission on November 7, 1997.
In 2004, the Columbus Dispatch reported that Marbley had sent federal marshals to arrest a critic, Robert Dalton, for contempt of court for calling him a "fuck up" in an email. The contempt charge was later dropped.[2]
