This is probably trivial, but I applied off-plan, was offered a clerkship, and accepted it. Because I did not go through OSCAR, I do not have the easy withdraw option.
I have a couple of other apps in that have not generated any response. Is it easier for chambers to get the notification from me now proactively or only if/when movement occurs on my application?

Just be prepared to decline the interview request if any of those judges reach out. No need to affirmatively contact 30 judges you applied to by paper to decline their consideration, unless you want to reverse flex or something.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Fri Jun 26, 2020 7:10 pmThis is probably trivial, but I applied off-plan, was offered a clerkship, and accepted it.

Possible exception for judges/chambers you have already had substantial individualized communication with.

Re: Withdraw applications after accepting offer (off-plan)?
Thanks! I only applied to 5 judges total and have only had any communication at all with the chambers I got the offer from, so it sounds like I can rest easy and just react as needed.MarkmanPapers wrote: ↑Fri Jun 26, 2020 7:16 pmJust be prepared to decline the interview request if any of those judges reach out.
