Judges NOT on Oscar Forum

[El_Sol]

If a specific judge is not on OSCAR ... Does that mean we cannot apply for clerkship? Or, some judges just do not use OSCAR?

Thanks!

I believe OSCAR lists all the judges. Do you mean not listed or listed but grayed out?

I have noticed some federal judges are not listed at all on Oscar.

Odd. I thought they were all listed, whether or not they had a profile was up to them.

Either way, you can call chambers to check, or just send in an application.

What about if a judge says for example "Not hiring for 2010 season" or "Not hiring" but dated around 2010 or 2011...

Do judges update their profiles regularly?

[kalvano]

I would just call.

OK - Thanks Kalvano

[omg clay aiken !]

there are judges who simply do not use oscar. i got my federal clerkship because i actively sought out the judges who only list clerkship openings on their court's website. most people don't know this. look at the court websites...
