Re: Let's Talk 4th Circuit!
Has Heytens extended any interview offers, or does he wait until Thursday?

Re: Let's Talk 4th Circuit!
Any movement from Richardson? Does he ever hire top students from regionals (alum doing generic biglaw, but graduated tied number 1 in class from a school in the 4th circuit)?
Additionally, any CA4 judges that would seriously someone with those stats?

Re: Let's Talk 4th Circuit!
Judging by past years, we’re in the witching hour….has anyone received an interview invite for Heytens?

Re: Let's Talk 4th Circuit!
Since it's a federal holiday are they even working today? I think most of us assumed if they were going to send invites out it would've been yesterday but might be wrongAnonymous User wrote: ↑Fri Jun 19, 2026 9:49 amJudging by past years, we’re in the witching hour….has anyone received an interview invite for Heytens?

That’s fair, I forgot about the holiday. Still, given that interviews could potentially start on the 22nd, I feel like they’d have to send out invites either today or over the weekend. I guess we’ll see!

The posting is marked as expired on OSCAR. I assumed that meant they sent out invites already but maybe not?

Re: Let's Talk 4th Circuit!
Genuine question because I really just don't know, but what makes Heytens so desired beyond just being a COA judge? Is he known to be a good boss? Does he feed? I saw in another thread that he's considered a top liberal clerkship at the moment, curious why that is (if it's true)

He is a semi-feeder.

Re: Let's Talk 4th Circuit!
he's one of very few Biden appointees with traditional feeder credentials and he's in the DC area, so he's very selective.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Fri Jun 19, 2026 5:30 pmGenuine question because I really just don't know, but what makes Heytens so desired beyond just being a COA judge?
