What are my options if I have accepted an offer from the Department before I receive an offer for a judicial clerkship or fellowship?
The Department, like any other employer, relies on the hiring commitments it receives. We hope that candidates who accept an offer of employment will honor that commitment; however, if you find yourself in this situation, we recommend that you immediately notify the hiring component. Please note that the Department does not generally grant deferrals based on acceptance of a judicial clerkship, as applicants remain eligible and may reapply the following year.
