Duties

The Consolidated Legal Center (CLC) at the United States Penitentiary in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, is under the direction of the Northeast Region, which provides litigation support to the United States Attorneys' Offices for inmate litigation arising out of the United States Penitentiary Lewisburg, Federal Correctional Complex Allenwood, United States Penitentiary Canaan, and the Federal Correctional Institution Schuylkill. The legal practice of CLC Lewisburg covers a wide variety of issues focusing on correctional and constitutional law, either through administrative or litigation channels and includes such matters as inmates' reasonable access to the courts (through access to legal materials, legal correspondence, and attorney-client visits), conditions of confinement, medical care, diet and religious accommodations, housing assignments, hygiene and sanitation, and discipline. The practice also addresses claims under the FTCA and FOIA, and provides assistance to federal and state law enforcement agencies and federal and state courts regarding issues relating to the CLC and the Bureau of Prisons (BOP).

The position includes being involved in a legal office which oversees the legal operations associated with the above correctional institutions. The CLC Attorney will be expected to provide advice and guidance to all levels of staff at these correctional facilities, including members of the Executive Staff and will also be expected to communicate with the United States Attorney's Office, defense attorneys, prosecutors, federal courts, and agency officials. The CLC Attorney may be required to appear in District Court on short notice to explain and advocate the agency's rationale for its correctional management decisions.

This is a primary law enforcement position. In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 3307, the maximum entry age of 36 has been established for initial appointment to a position in a Bureau of Prisons correctional institution. If you are above the maximum entry age and have prior federal law enforcement coverage, you must submit an SF-50 to verify prior coverage. Qualified Preference Eligible Veterans may be exempt from meeting the maximum age. The duties of this position may at times require frequent and direct contact with individuals in confinement who are suspected or convicted of serious criminal offenses. It has also been determined that the duties of this position require experience and knowledge of the on-the-job responsibilities of a primary law enforcement officer working in a detention facility. A prerequisite requirement of this position is the successful completion of 'Introduction to Correctional Techniques, Phase I' locally and, the satisfactory completion of a mandatory course in 'Introduction to Correctional Techniques, Phase II' at the Staff Training Academy.

Because of the nature and mission of this position, it requires "hands-on" understanding of the issues encompassed in working within an institution. The incumbent may be called on to perform as a law enforcement officer in a correctional environment during training, emergency situations, times of staff shortages, and under any other type of correctional operating crisis. Specific correctional responsibilities may include custody and supervision of inmates, responding to emergencies and institution disturbances, participating in fog and escape patrols, and assuming correctional officer posts when necessary. The incumbent may be required to shakedown inmates and conduct visual searches in their work or living area for contraband. The incumbent must be prepared to use physical control in situations where necessary, such as in fights among inmates, assaults on staff, and riots or escape attempts.
