LAW CLERK SCHEDULE

The following items are to be considered minimum requirements for each law clerk, to be completed during the five months' clerkship and prior to admission to the Bar, whether that clerkship as provided by Supreme Court Rule 52 (a) (8) is performed during or after the conclusion of law school. Responsibility for scheduling rests on the clerk; making these arrangements is regarded as an important part of the clerkship training. It is expected that it will involve visits by the clerks to each of the courts, and a review of the court calendars so as to select the most interesting and instructive occasions for visits.
