when neither is a feeder?
associate just sent farewell email, he's gone to do this for a total of two years. But I've seen people do this same kind of thing in the past for THREE years (where one of the successive clerkships is two years long).
Neither associate had plans for academia and has since returned to practice. I don't get it. What is the value added of a second COA clerkship?
ever a good reason to do two appellate clerkships? Forum

another year away from biglaw wage-slave existence?
That's the rationale I was given by a friend when she took on a second clerkship

Re: ever a good reason to do two appellate clerkships?
say more re federal circuit. Do you mean state supreme -> federal circuit? Or are you talking about the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit? And why would someone do a court of appeals for federal circiut and a general circuit clerkship?JusticeJackson wrote:I agree. I thought about doing a second to position myself geographically, but decided even that was a mistake. Perhaps if the second is the Federal Circuit or a feeder, it would make sense.
