I just came across an interesting source for telling us what the plans of members of the Supreme Court are for their futures.

Some highlights:

In case you missed it during the hectic holiday season, Justice Anthony M. Kennedy recently hired a full set of four clerks for October Term 2018 (i.e., 2018-2019). This might mean that Justice Kennedy, the longtime subject of retirement rumors (which he’s even joked about), is sticking around. Or it might not — because we’re talking about the hard-to-predict AMK, who’s a Supreme Court justice and can do as he pleases.

All nine justices have finished their OT 2018 hiring, even though we’re missing the names of a few hires for Justice Thomas, Justice Alito, and Justice Gorsuch. Furthermore, rumor has it that Justice Thomas and Justice Gorsuch have even finished their OT 2019 hiring.

And Bader-Ginsburg plans on staying around until 2020!
