Judicial Process Clinic

In this clinic, students spend a semester clerking for a federal or state judge either in Missouri or Illinois. Students perform legal research and analysis, help to draft orders and opinions and observe hearings and trials in the courtroom. To be eligible for a Clinic, you must have completed 46 credit hours prior to the beginning of the semester in which you are taking a Clinic. Legal Profession is a prerequisite for all clinics except Judicial Process, for which it is a pre or co-requisite. Priority is given to students with higher grade point averages.

In the spring semester only, there is an additional, limited opportunity for second-semester, second-year students to clerk for a judge with the Missouri Court of Appeals. This judicial clinic typically leads to a paid summer position with the same judge.

Professor Amany Hacking (ahacking@slu.edu) is the faculty supervisor for the Judicial Process Clinic.
