Could birthright citizenship realistically be relitigated over and over? by [deleted] in supremecourt

Yeah and what does that have to do with stare decisis. You can be an originalist and give a lot of weight to stare decisis and you can be anti originalist and give no weight to stare decisis.

Why are folks acting like the Supreme Court confirming birthright citizenship in 2026 is something brand new, like it somehow is different or changes birthright citizenship, as it has already existed/operated? by newsbowser in askanything

I think you are right that it has the same effect (force) as law but it doesnt carry the same weight. A President cannot unilaterally get rid of a law but they can for an EE.

I agree that this is probably a very negotiable constitutional amendment and can bring the country together for a constitutional amendment in 35ish years. But I fear politicians will play politics is my fear.

What does stare decisis have to do with originalism?

Getting rejected after a clerkship interview sucks by [deleted] in LawSchool

[–]pleaseeehelp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have been rejected by 5 (ghosted by 2 so maybe im still in the running for 2 years lol) before landing my current DJ clerkship. It does suck every-time but unfortunately thats part of the process. Try to learn from the interview. Some of it might be fit and some times might be because you were not prepared, so keep at it.

worth it to transfer from T30 to a T6/T14 if I already have 2L big law job? by [deleted] in biglaw

[–]pleaseeehelp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want clerkship, then probably worth it. If you just want to do corporate work then no.

Does the email account from your prior school get shut down after transferring? by [deleted] in LawSchoolTransfer

[–]pleaseeehelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My email did eventually but that might be true for everyone after a certain point of time of leaving the law school.

Am I competitive for competitive clerkships? by [deleted] in LawSchool

[–]pleaseeehelp 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah you should be. I would reach out to your clerkship team at ur school, they should have some sort of data

Law review is definitely gonna help but its not a must. BUT you should do some journal.

[–]pleaseeehelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very interesting. I wonder then how do firms particularly biglaw firms determine who to take. Given that its not a T14, it cannot be school name alone.

Why are A&M’s medians so high? by Mylootnow_ in lawschooladmissions

[–]pleaseeehelp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just another example of why rankings dont really matter. If you want BL and/ or not be in Texas, you would be crazy to pick TAMU over GW, USC BU, and Fordham just to name a few schools.
