Update on Supreme Court Clerks: Where Are They Now?

Supreme Court hallway Above the Law Above the Law Above the Law.JPGA few more updates from tipsters:

Edward C. Dawson, who clerked for Kennedy in OT 2003, is with Yetter & Warden, and according to our tipster is in the new Austin office.

Marc Allen, also a former Kennedy clerk, has reportedly gone in-house with Boeing, working for his old boss, Judge J. Michael Luttig.

Leondra Kruger, who clerked for Stevens in OT 2003, is a visiting assistant professor at the University of Chicago Law School.

The pattern of about half in private practice appears to be holding.

The problem with ATL's methodology is that the point of the survey is to find out the degree to which law firms have essentially been subsidizing public service by SCOTUS clerks. So from that point of view, telling us that so-and-so is now involved in public service means little unless we know that the clerk formerly worked at a private firm.

2:59 - that is, by far, the funniest comment I have ever read. I just had to shut my door to keep from embarrassing myself.

What a fall from grace to be working as a drone in BigLaw after serving as SCOTUS clerk.

While certainly a step down, most former SCOTUS clerks don't get drone work at their firms. They are protected to a large extent from it.
