We report the discovery of a new gravitational lens (GL) candidate for the quasar J03.13 (z = 2.55). The mean angular separation and magnitude difference between the A & B QSO images are found to be 0.84″ and 2.10 mag, respectively. A spatially unresolved medium resolution spectrum of J03.13 shows intervening absorption line systems at z = 2.34 and z = 1.085. The latter one is possibly associated with a σ = 206 km/s lens galaxy.
