Williams is rumored to have hired 2 from HLS and 1 from YLS for 2010, but he's still accepting 2010 applications on OSCAR. Are the rumors wrong or did he just forget to close OSCAR?

Sep 15, 2009, 5:07 PM 

 Re: Garland, Merrick B.


#29

Garland completes his hiring at approx. 9 am on the first day of hiring. You, like everyone else, have seen Garland's feeding record and want to clerk for Garland. Garland can essentially pick any moderate-to-liberal 3L in the nation as his law clerk, so he only calls basically the top 2 students from Harvard, Yale, and Stanford, and perhaps one student every five years from Columbia or Michigan. In summary, if you haven't heard from him, you will not hear from him.

Honestly, what's the story here? Ginsburg is basically the only DC Circuit judge that doesn't have a full list for 2010-11 on here and hasn't marked his positions filled on OSCAR. It would be nice if someone could just go ahead and tell us that he's full for 2010 so we can go ahead and put this thing to bed.
