Justice Eva Guzman Selected for Open SCOTX Seat
As reported in the Houston Chronicle, Governor Perry has selected 14th Court of Appeals Justice Eva Guzman (pictured) to fill the seat recently vacated by former Justice Scott Brister.
Justice Guzman will be the first Latina to serve on the Court. Because she is filling an unexpired term, she will stand for election as the incumbent in 2010.
