Lloyd Faces Rivas-Molloy in Race for Place 3 on First COA

Justice Russell Lloyd and Veronica Rivas-Molloy come from very different backgrounds.

Lloyd is a sixth-generation Texan, a Vietnam veteran who launched his career as a prosecutor in the Harris County District Attorney’s office and is a onetime George H.W. Bush nominee to the federal trial bench. Rivas-Molloy is a first generation immigrant to the U.S., was the first in her family to graduate from a four-year college and become a lawyer and has spent most of her legal career in Big Law practicing commercial and employment litigation.
