Pryor is interviewing. He will make decisions toward the end of the summer.
Pryor has finished screening resumes and has contacted those he intends to interview.
I can confirm that Judge Pryor has filled his interview spots and will start making decisions.
June 8th is wrong, Pryor is still accepting applications.
I was reading last year's blog, and it looks like many 11th Circuit judges hired early. Anyone know whether that will continue this year?
If you are interested in a particular Judge, call the chambers and ask. I've called Pryor's chambers and can confirm that he is still accepting applications.
Any word on Carnes' 2008 position?
anyone know who Dubina hired?
Dubina is finished hiring; Carnes still has one spot
Any word yet on Barkett?
Carnes hired a Jones grad
Jones? Is that a correspondence school?
Do you mean Faulkner?
Was Carnes' latest hire for the 08-09 term or the 09-10 term?
Jones Law School is part of Faulkner University. It it an up and coming school which had the highest bar passage rate on the most recent Alabama Bar exam.
More info on "Thomas Goode Jones School of Law"
- The LSAT range for the fall 2007 entering class was 153 - 148. The UGPA range was 3.36 - 2.76.
- The School of Law is provisionally approved by the American Bar Association.

Judge Cox is finished hiring; Judge Carnes is still contacting people for interviews
check your facts on the bar exam. It appears the university moped the floor with the short bus school, and apparently the JuCo did better than the short bus. Well, "on the most recent."

But the University still dominates the real bar (the July exam).

Hi, can these _please_ not turn into a flame war about the relative merits of schools. That's really not the point of this bulletin board.
FLAME WAR!!!
Btw, my school and my judge are the best.
I heard Pryor only hires people who are going to practice in Alabama after the clerkship - is that true?
I think it's very helpful, unless you have some other connection to him. I'm not sure Pryor hires many people cold.
Carnes is done. Pryor hires anyone qualified, regardless of prior contact.
He does seem to have a knack for people in his Fed. Jur. class at Alabama though.
Pryor has hired only one person from his Fed Jur class so far. That person was hired for 08-09. Out of his last 3 classes of clerks, only 2 remained in AL.
2:01, how do you know Carnes finished? Are you positive?
Does anyone know who Dubina and Cox hired?
Dubina and Cox each hired 1 UGA student.
No "G," if the information is correct, it should be "UA student"
I heard that Dubina hired a UA and a Cumberland student, and that Cox hired a UGA student.
Dubina hired #1 out of UA
11:42, that is false.
Any update on whether Pryor has started making decisions?
I have not heard from Pryor yet.
Pryor has hired a Duke 3L.
Pryor has hired a Regent 3L.
Pryor has hired a Michigan 3L.
Judge Pryor is reputed to be conservative but fair -- I hope his clerks are ready for some interesting discussions about law!
Judge Dubina hired UA, Cumberland, and UGA for his three spots.
So is Carnes' last spot filled?
Barkett is interviewing graduates
Any word on who Wilson and Black hired?
Black had hired a Duke 3L last year to work for the 2009-2010 term.
Does anyone know how Pryor notifies his hires? Telephone?
Carrier pigeon? Semaphore?
Anyone who applied for 2010 getting responses?
So is Carnes just hiring grads, or is he considering 3Ls at this point?
The judges in this circuit seem to do their own thing with hiring. I think Black and Hull, and maybe Edmondson, are the only ones who follow the hiring plan.
I know Tjoflat and Barkett do not. Also, those two usually hire mostly Ivy leaguers. Tjoflat usually has two Harvard or Yale grads who were on law review or law journal, two Dukies, also on Law Journal, and a wildcard who could come from any school. I think he hired a guy from Alabama last year, and apparently the guy was top of his class, law review, multiple publications, moot court, you know, a superstar.
Barket hires a lot of Ivies as well. I think many have come from Columbia.
That's all I know about this Circuit. Those were the two names my profs gave me as many of their former clerks have gone on to teach. Good luck!
Anyone know if Tjoflat has started interviewing? I've heard nothing but great things about him. He's supposed to be very intense and quite scholarly. I talked with one of his former clerks who compared working for him to the first year of law school, but he loved working for him and learned a lot.
