Answer to Question 1

Answer: b

Answer to Question 2

An ideal response will:
1. Explain that each justice picks his or her own clerks and works closely with them throughout the term. In addition to screening writs of certiorari, clerks prepare draft opinions for the justices. Today's opinions are longer, have more footnotes, and contain elaborate citations of cases and law review articles; this results in an ever-increasing number of law clerks who often appear to practice against each other.
2. Discuss the influence law clerks extend in decisions to grant certiorari.
3. Discuss the importance of law clerks' roles in writing early drafts of their justices' opinions.
