The 2008 Law Faculty Lateral Moves List

By Dan Filler

Updated as of April 27 and moved to the top.   Other related posts include current dean searches and 2008-09 visitors.  A slightly outdated list of laterals, by school of departure, is here.

I'ved noted the newest changes in red.  If you have entry level hiring news, make sure to alert Larry Solum.  His request for information, a particular format, is here.  As always, thanks to all my fellow bloggers - including Brian Leiter, Paul Caron, and Paul Secunda, among others - who have provided substantial portions of this data.  Please alert me to any other changes, misses or mistakes.

It strikes me that it's time to start organizing this year's law faculty lateral moves list.  Paul Secunda's great series of posts at Co-op (here, here, here, here, and here) inspired me to get the list posted.  As always, I rely on others to provide information for me to share.  Many thanks to Brian Leiter et al for their efforts putting some of this information into the blogosphere.  Inevitably this initial list will be radically incomplete - and perhaps contain errors.  I apologize in advance.    Please email me at danielmfiller@gmail.com with any additional info.
