Law Clerk Addict's Blog



As I mentioned both last month and the month before that, the the job announcements page at the U.S. Courts website is perhaps the most underutilized resource for finding judicial clerkship positions, particularly those that have opened up at the last minute. This month, the U.S. Courts website brings us a full four clerkship opportunities for the 2009-10 term:


* Term Law Clerk (W.D. Okla.) NOTE: June 24, 2009 deadline!

* Temporary Law Clerk (Bankr. N.D.N.Y.)

* Pro Se Law Clerk (W.D.N.Y.)

* Pro Se Law Clerk (D.P.R.)
