Washington, PA (near Pittsburgh): Court of Common Pleas seeks summer interns

Washington, PA – Summer 2012 Intern – Court of Common Pleas of Washington County

AkronLawJobs Job No. 3307 – The Court of Common Pleas of Washington County is currently looking for a Summer intern.  This is a good opportunity for a student who lives in the greater Pittsburgh area to participate in a public interest internship.   It would be most advantageous to someone interested in criminal law because 95% of our docket is criminal.  Internship is unpaid, but there is a great deal of turnover with the clerks in the courthouse, and former/current interns are looked upon favorably during the application process.  Please submit a cover letter and resume via regular mail or  email to:  Erick D. Rigby; Washington County Court of Common Pleas; One South Main Street; Suite 1004; Washington, PA  15302; lawclkpts@co.washington.pa.us.  Applications considered on a rolling basis so interested candidates should apply ASAP.

This opportunity would qualify for funding through the Akron Law Public Interest Program. Applications for the Public Interest Law Program stipends are available in the CPPO and are due by April 9, 2012 at 12 noon.
