Sykes is taking senior status effective 10/1.
Have any clerks on the 7th Circuit heard if Easterbrook will take senior status this year?

I (1L) was told by a prof that most appellate judges (even FedSoc-y ones) on the 7th Circuit follow the Plan, and won't be taking applications until summer after 2L - is this generally true?

This is generally true, but I am pretty sure Brennan and maybe Kirsch (both FedSoc-y) are off-planithinkuracontra13 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 31, 2025 3:58 pmI (1L) was told by a prof that most appellate judges (even FedSoc-y ones) on the 7th Circuit follow the Plan, and won't be taking applications until summer after 2L - is this generally true?

Kirsch is off-plan in the sense that he accepts application packets from Indiana schools before the plan opens up. Not sure if he looks at outside applicants before the plan officially starts.

Anyone know about movement on CA7 or NDIL? Seems like most judges are requiring prior experience besides a few of the conservatives

St. Eve and Scudder sound like great bosses, and Lee’s clerks seem happy.
