Re: SCOTUS Clerkship Movement?
I heard Kagan did (some?) interviews last week. Any movement yet?

Re: SCOTUS Clerkship Movement?
Thomas tends to hire relatively far out (though I don't think uniquely far out relative to other justices...Kavanaugh somewhat regularly hires 3Ls who have 2 clerkships lined up before they get to him). For example, I know someone who was hired by Thomas in June for OT 2027. Alito tends to hire a lot later. He has been known to sometimes extend offers a few months prior to the start of the clerkship. Though this isn't a hard/fast rule--he has hired 3Ls before.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Thu Nov 13, 2025 11:47 pmDoes anyone have any information about when the conservative Justices tend to move? Especially Thomas and Alito? Thanks!

Can confirm Kagan extended at least one offer in the past 10 days (I know the individual.)

Kagan sent letters saying she has filled her 2027 spots.
