Prominent figures in Florida’s legal community voiced their disappointment on Wednesday over Senator Rick Scott’s current inaction on the judiciary nomination of Detra Shaw-Wilder for the Southern District of Florida. Aaron Podhurst, a founder and partner of Podhurst Orseck in Miami, commented, “I am surprised and disappointed that perhaps political issues have slowed down her process, but I am hopeful that they will be resolved soon and Detra will move forward to confirmation.” Beatriz Azcuy, a co-managing partner at an Am Law 100 firm, added, “As a lifelong Republican and Floridian, I cannot imagine a more qualified nominee to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida.”
