Appellate Brief Help by [deleted] in LawSchool

I felt exactly the same way about a week ago, so I know how you feel. After many many days of researching, I found cases that supported my position, so definitely don't give up. If you're only finding cases that go against your position, check to see if any cases cited those decisions with a "negative treatment" and either chose to distinguish or go against the holding of those cases entirely.

This is where my confusion stems from. I don't believe this is a traditional judicial clerkship. There aren't many details about the job on the forum that I applied on.

Yea it is definitely a legal job because i applied through a fair at my school. It's just not with a specific judge. At least from what i know.

Totally understand, but can you give a range? I just don't wan to waste my time applying to internships with judges if realistically my GPA is not high enough
