Does anyone have any insight on Judge Jackson-Akiwumi’s hiring practices? Has she hired for 2024 or 2025?

Re: Let's Talk 7th Circuit!
Heard of someone being hired for 2025-26, but I don’t know if that means Jackson-Akiwumi is full for that term and all the terms before then. I would be surprised if she’s fully hired so far out, but it’s possible I guess.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Fri Aug 04, 2023 11:22 amDoes anyone have any insight on Judge Jackson-Akiwumi’s hiring practices?

Thumbs up on both. Both more on the conservative side, but very good judges. Well-respected, good bosses.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Sun Dec 24, 2023 11:08 amGood to hear.

Any word on Judge Jenkins? Either since she started or as a boss at the USAO/Cooley?

Super sharp. Look up her resume—crazy stuff. Very funny too in brief interactions; seems personable.

Just saw Kolar posted 2024-25 openings on OSCAR but the application is already closed. Must have been quite a short window given that he was only confirmed a month ago. Wish I saw earlier.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Fri Jul 28, 2023 7:03 pmYeah didn’t her OSCAR posting say clerks should be willing to work long hours or something?

Also NDIN Magistrate Judge Joshua Kolar was nominated to fill the Kanne seat this week - anybody have intel on what he’s like?

perhaps a dumb question, but by "this term", i assume you mean for clerkships starting fall 2024?

Yeah, I saw Kolar just changed his status on OSCAR to "no longer hiring," so I'm curious whether that means he has all the apps he wants or whether he's full up.
