Two former deputies to Loretta Lynch, who has been nominated as the next U.S. attorney general, are front-runners for her old job as the top federal prosecutor in Brooklyn, New York, according to people familiar with the matter.

The leading candidate to replace Lynch as U.S. attorney in Brooklyn is Christina Dugger, currently associate general counsel at JPMorgan Chase & Co., while Marshall Miller, now at the Justice Department’s criminal division, is also a contender for the position, said the people, who asked not to be identified because a decision hasn’t been made.
