Full Job Description

The Honorable Michael Gibbons of the Nevada Court of Appeals is currently accepting applications for law clerkships starting in Summer/Fall of 2027.

As a law clerk, you'll work directly with Judge Gibbons assisting in processing appeals and writ petitions. Your tasks will include legal research, drafting bench memos, preparing orders and opinions, and reviewing and editing documents.

Clerkships are available for one year. The Nevada Court of Appeals has a remaining vacant in Carson City for Judge Gibbons' chambers.

Please note that the Court of Appeals is a fast-paced working environment. Law clerks are expected to complete all assignments in a timely manner, which may require evening, weekend, and holiday work, as well as periodic out-of-town travel.

This is an excellent opportunity to gain valuable experience and judicial mentorship at the appellate level of Nevada's judiciary. Law clerks will hone their writing skills and learn best practices for oral and written advocacy, including how to make a record and preserve arguments for appeal.

Examples of Essential Duties:

Review cases assigned to your Judge’s chambers (1-2 per month)
Conduct all necessary legal research in a thorough and meticulous manner
Prepare concise, well-organized bench memos and orders within 30 days of assignment
Handle original writ petitions and petitions for rehearing
Edit own work product
Review decisions from other courts that may be applicable to pending Nevada cases
Carefully proofread orders and opinions
Attend oral arguments

Qualifications:

Must have graduated with a Juris Doctor from an ABA accredited law school by the start of the clerkship, preferably in the top 20%.

Law review or other journal experience is desirable as are moot court and judicial externships or prior judicial clerkships.

Law clerks must possess exceptional legal research and writing abilities, must be flexible, and must be motivated to work independently to produce high quality work in a fast-paced appellate environment.

Applicants are required to submit a Cover Letter, List of References, Resume, Writing Sample and Transcripts.
