  • Legal Communication & Rhetoric: JALWD Fall, 2011 Article and Essay
    8 LJALWD 239 Page 1 8 Legal Comm. & Rhetoric: JALWD 239 Legal Communication & Rhetoric: JALWD Fall, 2011 Article and Essay *239 JUDICIAL CLERKSHIPS A Bibliography Mary Dunnewold, Beth Honetschlager, Brenda Tofte [FNa1] Copyright © 2011 by the Association of Legal Writing Directors; Mary Dunnewold, Beth Honetschlager, Brenda Tofte WESTLAW LAWPRAC INDEX ADV -- Advocacy & Lawyering Skills Introduction Approximately 3,000 judicial clerkships are filled each year by new law school graduates. [FN1] Most law schools also offer judicial internship or externship courses, allowing students to earn academic credit for work performed as judicial clerks. [FN2] These courses often involve a classroom component in which students read about and discuss judicial decision-making, the judge's and clerk's roles, judicial writing, and other relevant top- ics. Recognizing the value of working behind the scenes in a judge's chambers, some law students even seek out and obtain volunteer positions as judicial clerks. [FN3] A wide variety of materials about judicial clerkships is available in bar journals, law reviews, and books, and on relevant web sites. This bibliography brings together the more recent of these materials and categorizes them by topic. The resulting compilation should be useful to academic professionals planning judicial-clerkship classes or externship experiences, law students contemplating judicial-clerkship positions and wanting to know more, and recent law school graduates preparing to enter judicial clerkships. [FN4] *240 We limited the bibliography to materials published since 1980 for two reasons. First, reliance on judi- cial clerks has exploded since the 1960s, [FN5] and advice to clerks may have changed as clerkship positions have become both more competitive and more available.

    In 'bizarre' decision, 1st Circuit won't allow Harvard prof to step in for Title IX defendant 11/1/19 Alison Frankel's On The Case 20:39:00 Alison Frankel's On The Case Copyright (c) 2019 Thomson Reuters November 1, 2019 In 'bizarre' decision, 1st Circuit won't allow Harvard prof to step in for Title IX defendant Update: Late Friday afternoon, the 1st Circuit Court of Appeals changed its mind and agreed to allow Harvard professor Jeannie Suk Gerson to appear in the case for John Doe. The order was entered without explanation by Judges Sandra Lynch, Michael Boudin and Kermit Lipez will hear arguments in Doe's case on Tuesday. Last week, the Harvard law professor Jeannie Suk Gersen filed a motion at the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to appear for a Boston College student who asserts the college improperly suspended him after denying him due process in its investigation of a sexual assault allegation. What's happened since then is just plain "bizarre," in the words of ethics expert Charles Wolfram, the Cornell law professor. Gersen is well-known as an expert in Title IX cases and this one promised to be significant. U.S. District Judge Donald Woodlock of Boston had granted a motion by the student, identified only as John Doe, for a preliminary motion to block his suspension. BC's lawyers at Locke Lord contended that the trial judge erroneously applied precedent that requires public universities allow real-time cross-examination of witnesses to a case involving a private college.
