Junior Lawyer Participation Incentives
Rules are being added for this category.
Some judges actively encourage the participation of junior lawyers in court proceedings, particularly oral arguments. These incentives typically allow attorneys with fewer than a specified number of years of experience to argue motions, with some judges offering benefits such as an increased likelihood of granting oral argument when a junior lawyer is designated. Several judges permit multiple attorneys from the same side to argue different issues, creating opportunities for junior lawyers to gain courtroom experience alongside senior counsel.
