Following legislation enacted this past May, and signed into law by Arizona Governor Doug Ducey, the two new Arizona Supreme Court Justice positions created by that legislation have been filled by Governor Ducey, changing the five-seat panel to a seven-seat panel.
Republicans Andrew Gould, currently an Arizona Court of Appeals Justice, and John Lopez IV, current Arizona Solicitor General, were announced yesterday as the appointees named by Ducey. Mr. Lopez is the first Hispanic selected to serve in the Arizona Supreme Court.
