Vivian Zumas Running For Magisterial District Judge

Bethlehem attorney Vivian Zumas will announce her candidacy for magisterial district judge tomorrow from the Prime Steak House on Stoke Park Road. Her event runs from 5:30 – 7:30 p.m., and the public is invited. She is running for Jim Narlesky's seat, which includes the 14th Ward of Bethlehem and Hanover Township, Northampton County. Judge Narlesky has decided to retire.

Zumas is a graduate of DeSales and Widener University School of Law, and has been practicing law here in the Lehigh Valley for 16 years. She served a stint as a Deputy AG and as an assistant DA before going into private practice.

She is known for her sense of humor. I think it's humor. Every time she sees me, she starts laughing. She's also a good listener. She has to be.She and her husband George have two very energetic sons.

She is also a first generation American and is deeply devoted to St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church.

  1. Aside from being an excellent attorney with all her years of experience, she is down to earth and very intuitive, which are the qualities I would like to see in a judge.

  3. I have heard she will have competition but have received no announcements. If I receive them or am contacted, I will certainly let you know.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
