 * Delete. (retracting !vote due to below sourcing which I cannot access) Comment . (Updated !vote: Weak keep based on judicial nom + local coverage below for BIO.)  Aside from the fact of the nomination, coverage all seems to be statements from the subject, not secondary/independent sigcov. The only secondary source I found, presuming it even is this subject, is this reference to an interview . Possibly meets BLP1E as exclusionary, but doesn't meet BASIC/GNG either. &mdash;siro&chi;o 00:57, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the help. I have successfully parts of the Wikipedia library before but didn't realize you could access ProQuest like that! &mdash;siro&chi;o 06:34, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:BIO. Besides the sources mentioning his nomination, I found this article covering Richmond's philanthropy and this article where the local lawyer's association gave him a Lifetime Service Award.  APK  whisper in my ear  05:51, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete a non-notable WP:BLP1E for his failed judicial nomination. SportingFlyer  T · C  13:55, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete Non-notable BLP. I've done some research and can possibly see why his nomination to district court failed. He's an attorney aged 63-64. This source repeats what others sources say. He has "tried over 15 cases" and "argued 17 appeals" Lower down in the same source it says, "he argued 14 appeals". That's not much for an attorney of that age. Neither this source, nor others, say his cases were successful. — Maile  (talk) 03:03, 24 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Alternative proposal: Merge with others in this group into a single article along the lines of Unsuccessful Donald Trump judicial nominations. BD2412  T 04:42, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
