Joshua S. Levy is an American lawyer who served as the United States Attorney for the District of Massachusetts from November 25, 2024 to January 17, 2025. Levy was sworn-in as First Assistant U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts by U.S. District Court Chief Judge F. Dennis Saylor IV on January 11, 2022, after having been appointed to serve by the newly-confirmed U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts, Rachael S. Rollins. On May 19, 2023, Rollins abruptly resigned; in accordance with the Vacancies Act, Levy immediately assumed the role of Acting U.S. Attorney. Levy was twice nominated by President Biden for the permanent role of U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts, but it did not pass Senate confirmation; he was eventually appointed by Attorney General Garland in the last week of November 2024, but ultimately resigned shortly after, on January 17, 2025.
