Also, I'm more willing to go somewhere somewhat unpleasant for a court of appeals (such as here) than I am for district court.

The one nice thing about Syracuse: at least you'll be able to shop at Wegmans.

That is a selling point.

In my Business Law class (version 4.0) we were talking about clerkship, and I immediately thought of you. I'm crossing my fingers and toes for you - keep keeping us updated!

I actually met with the Dean today to talk about her experiences clerking. I am waiting for a batch of hard copy reference letters to be ready (40-some) and then I'll be sending out some applications for judges that don't follow the hiring plan (as they could hire at any time) and some others that accept applications by mail. Which means I really need to draft my district court cover letter this weekend.

Then it's the "big push", with about 100 online applications.

And I may not start to hear anything - assuming I do hear anything - until September.

Minor update - nothing exciting or worth a new thread.

So, it's been ups and downs. The hiring plan people changed the rules and I can't apply for hiring plan jobs now until 9/4. But they're not all hiring plan jobs, so I'm sending out some apps now.

So far, apps have been officially sent to the following cities:

Fairbanks, AK
Birmingham, AL
Montgomery, AL
Tucson, AZ
Pasadena, CA
Fort Myers, FL
Miami, FL
Orlando, FL
Pensacola, FL
Atlanta, GA
Albuquerque, NM
Santa Fe, NM
Reno, NV
Charleston, SC
Greenville, SC
Norfolk, VA

Tomorrow two more are going to:

Savannah, GA
Portland, OR

Ooooh, good luck! Come to California and play with us. :)

Crossing my fingers for your Portland app:)

So no Idaho? I'll be all alone in northern Utah come next year.

Think of ME.... me me meeee! :)

*sniffles*

Good luck, really... I mean it. ;)

Thanks for the good wishes - and blueerica - both Idaho (I can't believe I'm considering Pocatello) and Utah will be represented in future apps.

Redlands is pretty cool, from what I hear and what I have visited. Redlands Bowl on Thursday nights is fantastic.
I live in Modesto, rated the worst city in the United States. Don't move here, you will regret it.
