Judge as reference for future clerkship
Posted: Tue Dec 10, 2019 7:17 pm
I am currently in a clerkship that is subject to renewal for another year, but I have not yet received any indication as to whether I will be extended - the term ends in 3 months.
I just interviewed with a judge for another clerkship that is set to begin next year. She (judge 2) is interested in talking to my current judge (judge 1). I asked judge 2 if she would hold off on making a call until I notified judge 1.
Here’s the dilemma: I’d like to go to judge 2 next year If I could, but also don’t want to run the risk of jeopardizing a potential extension here with judge 1. The last thing I’d want is to have no clerkship at all 3 months from now. Is there a right way to broach this topic with judge 1?
