My judge doesn’t have hard rules. When I accepted an offer I had to decide myself from all cases involving the firm. But I imagine if you are at the callback stage and there is an active case (I.e. a pending motion you’re working on it will turn to soon) with the firm you’re interviewing with, you should probably recuse yourself.
*recuse
We’re not allowed to work on any matters with firms we are interviewing with (if we have just applied it’s sort of a gray area)
I clerk for a federal court in a small state, and my Judges/the Court’s policy is that you can apply wherever you’d like (even if there are pending matters with that firm) but once you get an offer you are automatically conflicted out. If you get multiple offers you’re conflicted out of all matters with those firms until you make your decision and accept an offer.
