What are the Elect from OT 2001 Up To?

June 8th, 2011

In a letter addressed to the the Senate Judiciary Committee, 27 Supreme Court law clerks from the October 2001 Term wrote in favor of the nomination of Alison Nathan, a nominee to SDNY. So who are these elect, and what are they up to? A bunch of law profs, a bunch of partners in big law firms, and a few who chose not to identify their current occupations
