There are many things I wish I had done differently, but I have often revisited, and never really regretted, my decision not to clerk, much like my decision not to transfer. People now speculate that one particular judge, along with several others, is considered most likely to be nominated to replace the soon-to-retire Justice Souter on the Supreme Court. If that does happen, I’ll probably have to revisit this question again and reach a different conclusion… Not that I would have gotten an offer with this judge (likely not), but at least I would be able to brag that I had once talked to a supreme court justice in person for half an hour.
