About the District

Northern District of West Virginia — Federal Court Overview

The United States District Court for the Northern District of West Virginia covers the northern half of the state, with courthouse locations in Clarksburg (the primary courthouse, the John D. Rockefeller IV Federal Building), Elkins, Martinsburg, and Wheeling. N.D.W. Va. sits within the Fourth Circuit and serves a geographically diverse region encompassing the Ohio River Valley industrial city of Wheeling at the Ohio and Pennsylvania borders, the federal and state government community of Clarksburg in Harrison County, the Appalachian mountain communities of Elkins in the Monongahela National Forest region, the Eastern Panhandle communities of Martinsburg and Shepherdstown near the Virginia and Maryland borders, and the Morgantown community (home of West Virginia University) which falls within the Clarksburg division.

The district's federal criminal docket is dominated by drug trafficking — West Virginia was among the states hardest hit by the opioid epidemic, and the northern district sees a sustained volume of federal prosecutions for heroin, fentanyl, and methamphetamine distribution. The Eastern Panhandle (Martinsburg division), adjacent to the Washington D.C. metro area and the I-81 corridor, generates drug cases linked to Baltimore and D.C. supply networks. Firearms offenses and financial fraud also appear regularly on the docket. The Wheeling division serves the Ohio River communities bordering Ohio and Pennsylvania. PanelTime™ reads any timesheet format and converts the full record to an eVoucher-ready file automatically.

CJA panel attorneys in N.D.W. Va. submit compensation through the national eVoucher platform using CJA-20 vouchers.
