Magistrate Judge Robin M. Meriweather of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia is accepting applications for Summer 2024 internships in her Chambers. Interns will gain legal research and writing experience and have the opportunity to observe court proceedings. Summer interns are expected to work full-time (40 hours per week) for at least 8 weeks.
Interested applicants should submit a single, combined PDF that includes a cover letter, resume, short writing sample (15 pages or less), law school transcript, and two references. References may be submitted either as signed letters of recommendation or as a list with each reference’s contact information. 1L applicants may be asked to supplement their application with an updated transcript once fall semester grades are released.
Judge Meriweather prefers that application materials be sent electronically to Meriweather_Applications@dcd.uscourts.gov. Applications may also be sent via U.S. Mail.
Applications should be submitted no later than February 10, 2024 and will be reviewed on a rolling basis.
