Marla Graff Decker (born May 31, 1958) is Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals of Virginia. She was appointed as a judge of the Court on October 1, 2013 by Governor Bob McDonnell and took office a month later. From 2010 until her swearing in as a judge, she was the Secretary of Public Safety in Governor McDonnell's cabinet.[1] Judge Graff was elected to a four-year term Chief Judge of the Court in 2019, succeeding Judge Glen A. Huff.[2] Because Chief Judge Graff's term expires in 2021[needs update], she will need to be reappointed to the Court by the General Assembly, which is now controlled by the Democratic Party, in order to complete her term as Chief Judge.
