Timothy W. Wright III to seek 5th Subcircuit vacancy

Timothy W. Wright III, a finalist for Cook County associate judge in 2021, has announced that he will be seeking election to a 5th Subcircuit vacancy in 2022. A campaign website has been launched in furtherance of that effort. That's a link to the site in the preceding sentence; a link has also been added to the site Sidebar.

Licensed in Illinois since 1984, Wright practices with the national law firm of Quintairos, Prieto, Wood & Boyer, P.A., a firm that bills itself as "the largest minority and women owned law firm in the country."

Wright practices from both the Chicago and Los Angeles offices of the firm (he is also licensed in California) and, according to his campaign bio, serves as Managing Partner for Operations of the firm.

According to his campaign bio, Wright "served as Special Counsel and Director of Intergovernmental Affairs for Chicago Mayor Harold Washington and was Commissioner of the Department of Economic Development for the City of Chicago under two administrations. At the federal level, Attorney Wright served as President Clinton’s first Director of Domestic Policy and in various capacities in his Administration. He also served as Chief of Staff for Congressman Bobby L. Rush." Wright also holds a Master of Divinity degree from the Chicago Theological Seminary, according to his campaign bio, and expects to receive his Doctorate in Ministry in 2022 from McCormick Theological Seminary.
