All: 

For the past few years, I’ve been involved in representing the U.S. District Courts for the District of Idaho in the Ninth Circuit, first as a Lawyer Representative (3 year term) and more recently being elected to serve as an officer of the group that oversees all 170+ lawyer representatives in the Ninth Circuit.  It has been an amazing opportunity that has allowed me great access to our federal bench in Idaho and throughout the Circuit.  Our court is currently soliciting applications from the 4th District for a lawyer representative — this person will take over for out-going lawyer rep Steve Anderson.  A lawyer rep serves for 3 years and is expected to: (1) attend quarterly meetings with the Board of Judges of the federal court; (2) help plan and execute the annual federal court road show; and (3) attend the Ninth Circuit’s annual judicial conference (and, as a senior lawyer rep, help plan some of the programs).  All of your expenses are reimbursed by the court.  This year the Ninth Circuit’s conference is in Maui and next year its in San Diego — it’s a good gig!

If you have any interest in applying, feel free to talk to me about it and/or check out this website:
