Eva Martinez Guzman (born January 12, 1961) is an American attorney, politician, and jurist who served as a Republican member of the Texas Supreme Court from 2009 to 2021. Justice Guzman is a Shareholder at Chamberlain Hrdlicka in the Houston and San Antonio, Texas offices. Guzman was initially appointed to the court by then-Governor Rick Perry in 2009 to fill the seat vacated by Justice Scott Brister, who had resigned with more than a year left in his term. In a June 7, 2021 letter to Governor Greg Abbott, Guzman announced her resignation effective by the end of the week. Guzman later announced a challenge to incumbent Attorney General Ken Paxton in the 2022 GOP primary.
