Wondering if anyone can share what to expect to take home from a 50K clerkship bonus and 10K bar stipend (receiving after clerkship) in CA? I don't currently live CA, so I'm not sure how much to expect to have withheld.
FWIW I'm married.

I recently received my bar stipend from firm - but not clerkship bonus. My stipend was taxed at about ~36% all in.

usually massive withholding but you get a giant tax refund. The 35%+ figure the other poster quoted lines up with my experience.
