Students must commit to working 10 hours per week during these two terms. Selected students will assist in the prosecution of federal criminal cases under the supervision of an Assistant United States Attorney in the Western District of Texas. Applications for the 2009-2010 academic year are due at the end of February 2009. Mr. Brown will call selected students for an interview in March 2009.
