Four women will sit on the Third District Court of Appeal bench for the first time, now that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has appointed Miami-Dade Circuit Judge Monica Gordo and Miami-Dade Assistant State Attorney Fleur Lobree.
Their elevations fill spots left by new Florida Justices Barbara Lagoa and Robert Luck.
Judge Gordo, 43, handled appeals in the family division. She began her career in 1999 with the Miami-Dade State Attorney's Office. By 2010, Gordo was special prosecutor for the gang strike force team before being elected to the circuit bench. She has also served on the Cuban American Bar Association's board of directors and received both her bachelor's and law degrees from the University of Miami.
