U.S. Supreme Court
Help Wanted: Supreme Court ‘Style Stickler’
Anyone willing to take on the editing of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decisions can now apply for the job.
The pay for the official “reporter of decisions” is between $155,500 and $179,700, according to The BLT: The Blog of Legal Times. The job requires a law degree, five years of legal experience, and five years of managerial experience, preferably in law book publishing.
The reporter of decisions also manages a staff of 11 and writes opinion syllabuses.
The job opening is the result of the retirement of Frank Wagner, who recently told of a debate over apostrophes among the justices. The BLT headline describes the job as a “style stickler.”
