We're continuing to profile the current class of Supreme Court law clerks. We've written up the Alito clerks for October Term 2006 already, and we're working on profiles of the Breyer clerks.

(We reiterate our prior request for tips about the SGB crew, especially Thiru Vignarajah. We probably have enough material about the other three.)

Looking ahead to the future, here's what we know so far about the justices' hiring of law clerks for October Term 2007. Most of it is taken from Wikipedia.

Caveat lector: Wikipedia, of course, can be edited by pretty much anyone. So please note that much of the information appearing below is UNCONFIRMED. We have added links to additional, confirmatory sources where available, so you can weigh for yourself the reliability of the information.

Justice Antonin Scalia

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg

2. Jessica Phillips (Northwestern 2006 / Flaum)

Justice Sandra Day O'Connor (retired):

(Random observation: WOW. This is shaping up as the best Term ever for Northwestern Law School, with three of its graduates landing SCOTUS clerkships so far. And U. Penn is doing quite well, too.)

As we all know, Wikipedia is not infallible. So if you have corrections (or additions) to any of the OT 2007 law clerk information appearing above, please email us. Thanks.
