How to find contact information of state judges
Hello all: I'm trying to apply to state judges in the Missouri and Nebraska states. Does anyone know how I can try to find contact information for these judges to send application materials? Thanks.

Re: How to find contact information of state judges
Although I think the above poster is a spammer, they're actually right. Go to the state court webpage (just google "Missouri courts"). The Vermont state clerkship guide will also have information - ask your CSO for access. (You probably won't get an email address - you will probably need to send paper apps, although I suppose you could call individual judges and find out if there's an address you can email to.)

Thanks. I wasn't able to find a phone number or email on the state court website, but I was able to get the contact information another way by calling the main line.

Re: How to find contact information of state judges
Yeah, most judges don't have their phone numbers or e-mails publicly accessible, for fairly obvious reasons. You can always call up a main courthouse number and ask to be connected, and ask chambers what's the best way to send them something.Anonymous User wrote:Thanks.

Meh, you'd be surprised. I've seen district court judges with their phone numbers to the public. It was in places I was applying, big and small. CD Cal and D. Kan.A.

Re: How to find contact information of state judges
The judges' numbers, or their chambers' numbers? Also, district court numbers are pretty easy to get because attorneys have to contact chambers a lot. If you're looking at appellate level stuff (state or feds) it's harder, because there aren't really any reasons why attorneys should be contacting the judges/justices. (But I should have qualified my response.)Anonymous User wrote:Meh, you'd be surprised. I've seen district court judges with their phone numbers to the public.
