District 57 politicos will get a kick out of this “shot.”  Former Cedar Hills Precinct Chair and former General Counsel to Governor Jon Huntsman, Jr., Mike Lee, gave Kim and me a tour around the back halls of the US Supreme Court Building during our visit to Washington DC.  Mike, who is currently in his last few months as a “clerk” for Justice Samuel Alito, showed us around the beautiful and historic rooms of the building constructed in the mid 1930’s.

This picture was taken in the gym located directly above the Supreme Court’s Chamber.  The sign on the wall next to the basketball court reminds players not to engage in court activities while Court is in session.  As one of Utah’s sons…Mike’s doing a fabulous job in the High Court.

    [...] Kim and I had an eventful and educational trip a few months ago as we visited Washington DC.  One of the highlights of our trip was a visit with Mike Lee (former General Counsel to Gov. Jon Huntsman, Jr.) while he was clerking for Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito.  Leaving from Cedar Hills (District 57) for the year-long stint in the High Court, it was uncertain whether Mike and his family would return to Utah to practice law.  When we dropped in on him, he was in the process of “looking around” for his next occupational adventure.  As I understand it, clerking for a Supreme Court Justice has its fiscal benefits…if you know what I mean!  Jobs like this have been a springboard for a number of high impact attorney/judges in the past.  Click HERE.  [Note the reference to working as an Assistant for a Utahn in the Solicitor General’s office.] [...]
