He's actually working for O'Connor based on the site you sent us too.
I mean, I know she's retired so she still gets a clerk--but I wouldn't want to work for a Justice whose opinions don't get published anymore.
Anyone else surprised that 90some% of the newly hired clerks are from the Harvard/Yale club?
We had 3 professors (and the Dean) at my law school who were all Supreme Court Clerks--2 went to Harvard (both clerked for Ginsburg), 1 went to UVA (He clerked for Chief Justice Rehnquist), and the Dean went to Michigan (he clerked for O'Connor).
They are damn hard jobs to get though.
