April FarrisFarris spent her career arguing the State of Texas's side — as an Assistant Solicitor General defending state laws in court, then clerking for one of the most conservative federal judges in the country — before Abbott installed her on the new 15th Court in 2024.
About April
She's backed by Texas Alliance for Life and the business lobby that fights to limit lawsuits against companies. A Big Spring native, she went to Abilene Christian and Harvard Law, then was a partner at a major firm handling appeals for energy, tech and government clients. Abbott appointed her to the Houston appeals court in 2021, she kept it at the polls in 2022 — but she has never faced voters for the 15th Court. She's been married 18 years and has two children.
