Why is there so much hate for Quinn Emanuel? Forum

Lohier?

He’s sent like 4-5 clerks in a decade and a half on the bench. That’s not a feeder. CA2 is weak anymore.

I mean, he has 8 feeds in the last 5 years, not exactly bad numbers

Does he really? That's elite for CA2.

At least 8, I didn't do a super diligent search or anything - just finder key'd the wikipedia lists. One to CJR and the rest to Kagan/Sotomeyer/Breyer so like, focused but decent

Still not feeder status though if you look at the other circuits. Honestly, does CA2 even come in the top half for circuits sending clerks to the court anymore?

I threw this out there as a reason why you guys are annoying and here you go, Ex A.

Lol agreed. Plus, 2-3 judges on the 6th (for example) groom 99% of that circuit's SCOTUS clerks. So sure, a Bibas or Pryor (11th) clerkship might be more impressive and important for top-end appellate lawyer wannabes, but on the whole, the 2d or the 9th are still, due to various factors, more competitive for prospective clerks generally than the 6th or the 11th.
