In this episode, we continue the taboo discussion about law clerks. Only this time, we get even more controversial.  Did you know that Federal Judges empowered to judge discrimination and harassment cases are exempt from the same anti-discrimination laws that apply to other government branches and private employers? Yup, Judges are above the law. And some Judges abuse their staff with impunity.  In this episode, we speak with Aliza Shatzman, co-founder of The Legal Accountability Project, a nonprofit aimed at ensuring that law clerks have positive clerkship experiences while extending support and resources to those who do not.  Find us on Twitter - @courtpod.  Drop an email at mayitdispleasethecourt@gmail.com.  We would also love to rate and review the show. It helps others find the program.
