1. Judge Bloom's Judicial Intern Academy, now in its fifth year, had its year end luncheon this past Friday (picture above). It's really hard to land an internship with a federal judge and the program is designed to give more students the internship experience through pairing with former federal law clerks and programming. If you're a former federal law clerk in the SDFLA who might want to get involved, I can connect you to the right people.
2. With Judge Goodman's retirement, Judge Matthewman is now the chief magistrate judge in our district. Law.com had a nice write up on him that you can find here. Judge Matthewman, who served as a police officer before embarking on his legal career, said one of his focuses will be on judicial security.
3. Jay Weaver wrote this article about what the blog proprietor has been doing lately.
4. Big hearing today in front of Judge Ruiz about "Alligator Alcatraz." Lawyers for the detainees there say that immigration judges are cancelling hearings because they don't have jurisdiction over the detainees. Check out the story here.
