For students with an appellate clerkship already lined up, please consider the opportunity below.
Judge Charles R. Breyer is currently hiring for the 2020-21 term. Students who already have obtained an appellate clerkship and are inclined to head west are encouraged to apply.
A Law Clerk currently in Breyer’s chambers describes the opporuntiy as:
“A terrific clerkship — Judge Breyer hires only one term clerk per year, and that clerk works closely with both the judge and the career law clerk. Two of Judge Breyer’s past four clerks have gone on to secure Supreme Court clerkships. He was recently featured in the New York times for his work on the Volkswagen defeat device litigation. More details can be found on OSCAR.”
Please consider this opportunity as you finalize your clerkship applications and judge lists.
