LEONARDTOWN, Md. – The Commissioners of St. Mary’s County have ordered Maryland State and St. Mary’s County flags to be flown at half-staff in St. Mary’s County, in honor and remembrance of the Honorable Judge Michael J. Stamm, who passed away on October 2, 2024.

Judge Stamm, who served as the County Administrative Judge for the St. Mary’s County Circuit Court since 2018, dedicated nearly two decades of his life to the judiciary. First appointed as Associate Judge in 2006, he played a pivotal role in shaping the local legal landscape, particularly through his leadership in the Juvenile Drug Court Program. Judge Stamm was also a tireless advocate for problem-solving courts, foster care improvements, and juvenile justice reform, contributing to several key committees and initiatives across the state.

“Judge Stamm’s commitment to justice, especially for the youth of our community, was unparalleled. His dedication and leadership will be greatly missed,” said Commissioner President James Randy Guy. “Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, and colleagues during this difficult time.”

State of Maryland and St. Mary’s County flags will remain lowered in St. Mary’s County until sunset on the day of his interment, honoring his decades of service to the people of St. Mary’s County and the State of Maryland.
