Is it safe to assume that if you haven’t heard from Gibbons, you’ve gotten rejected?

Re: Let's talk 6th Circuit!
Hey, I'm a current student at YS. I'm sort of out of the loop, but does anyone have a rough grade range we're expected to have for judges specifically in MI or OH. Are we expected to have certain credentials like moot court, journal, and work with "prestigious" professors?
I know it's early for sure, but many friends (interested in DC/9th/2nd) are starting to move things along. I am liberal but willing to clerk for conservative judges. Would greatly appreciate any input/insight.

Re: Let's talk 6th Circuit!
Yeah, I was at just shy of 50/50 when I applied and got multiple interviews (and a clerkship) on the Sixth. You won't be competitive for Kethledge or Sutton but all the other OH/MI judges should be at least somewhat in play.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Thu Mar 14, 2024 4:15 pmI can speak for S.

Re: Let's talk 6th Circuit!
Does anyone have info for Y? Do they expect some post-law school work experience, or look for DCt clerkships? Along those lines, is it a thing for COA judges to funnel into DCt?

Re: Let's talk 6th Circuit!
Current CA6 clerk - can't speak for the conservatives (who, from my impression, are generally more open to straight-out-of-school applicants), but the liberal judges generally seem to prefer some post-law school work experience (and I think at least Stranch expressly requires it). That's true regardless of which law school you went to.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Fri Mar 15, 2024 3:52 pmDoes anyone have info for Y?

Re: Let's talk 6th Circuit!
My liberal Sixth Circuit judge does not care that much about WE or require it unless it is a prior clerkship (can be anything, federal appellate, state supreme court, federal district) in which case it is a solid plus. Would not be odd, though, to just graduate and go straight to the clerkship.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Fri Mar 15, 2024 5:08 pmCurrent CA6 clerk - can't speak for the conservatives (who, from my impression, are generally more open to straight-out-of-school applicants), but the liberal judges generally seem to prefer some post-law school work experience (and I think at least Stranch expressly requires it).

Re: Let's talk 6th Circuit!
My bad, then - my liberal CA6 judge (who isn't Stranch) does, and the other liberal chambers I've met have all clerks with at least one year of post-grad experience. Just goes to show that it's hard to characterize all judges on a circuit (or even a subset) with a broad brush.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2024 11:16 amMy liberal Sixth Circuit judge does not care that much about WE or require it unless it is a prior clerkship (can be anything, federal appellate, state supreme court, federal district) in which case it is a solid plus.

Re: Let's talk 6th Circuit!
Pretty sure he requires prior clerkship experience of at least one year, according to his OSCAR post.

Bush has apparently hired at least one for 27-28; might be full for 26-27.
