BG Lawyer Allison Bruff Appointed to Supreme Court Fellows Commission

Bailey Glasser lawyer Allison A. Bruff has been appointed as a Commissioner to the Supreme Court Fellows Commission. The Chief Justice of the United States appoints the members of the Commission, which oversees the Supreme Court Fellows Program and selects the Fellows each year.

Founded in 1973, the Supreme Court Fellows Program offers mid-career professionals, recent law school graduates, and doctoral degree holders from the law and political science fields an opportunity to broaden their understanding of the judicial system through exposure to federal court administration. Four Fellows are selected each year and placed among four judiciary agencies: Supreme Court of the United States, Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts, Federal Judicial Center, and U.S. Sentencing Commission.

Allison served as a Supreme Court Fellow from 2020 to 2022, with placements at the U.S. Sentencing Commission and in the Office of the Counselor to the Chief Justice. As an alumna of the Fellows Program, Allison will bring a unique and important perspective to the Commission.

Allison’s previous judiciary experience includes federal clerkships with the Honorable Judge Julia Smith Gibbons of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit and Judge David G. Campbell in his role as Chair of the Judicial Conference Committee on Rules of Practice and Procedure. Most recently, Allison worked in the Office of the General Counsel at the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts.
