Hartford, Conn./WTIC Radio - Governor Lamont has announced he is nominating a longtime federal prosecutor to the Connecticut Supreme Court.
Sandra Slack Glover, 52, has worked in the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Connecticut for nearly two decades.
Glover is currently Chief of the Appellate Unit, a position she's held since 2010.
Lamont nominated Glover to replace former Associate Justice Maria Khan, recently confirmed to the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York.
“Sandra Slack Glover is highly respected within Connecticut’s legal community and around the country as an accomplished appellate lawyer,” Governor Lamont said.
After graduating from the University of Chicago Law School, Glover clerked for U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor and Chief Judge Richard A. Posner of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit.
“I am deeply honored to be nominated by Governor Lamont to serve in this important position, and I am grateful for the trust he is placing in me,” Glover said.
The nomination has been forwarded to the General Assembly for its consideration.
