Governor Gordon Appoints Ryan Roden Interim State Public Defender

 

CHEYENNE, Wyo. – Governor Mark Gordon has announced the appointment of Ryan Roden as the interim State Public Defender. Roden’s appointment follows the retirement of State Public Defender Diane Lozano, who has served in that capacity since 2007.

Roden has worked in the Office of the State Public Defender since 1999, serving as Deputy State Public Defender since 2007. He previously served as a private practice attorney and as a Staff Attorney at the Wyoming Supreme Court. Roden received his Bachelor of Science and Juris Doctorate degrees from the University of Wyoming. 

“Diane’s service to the state has been extraordinary. I thank her for her dedication to the people of Wyoming, to her commitment to justice and the law, and for her three decades of service in the state public defender’s office,” Governor Gordon said. “I welcome Ryan and thank him for his willingness to serve in an interim capacity.”
