Each justice or judge of the United States shall take the following oath or affirmation before performing the duties of his office: ?I, XXX XXX, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will administer justice without respect to persons, and do equal right to the poor and to the rich, and that I will faithfully and impartially discharge and perform all the duties incumbent upon me as XXX under the Constitution and laws of the United States. So help me God.?

The clerk at the Secretary of State wrote in the note at the bottom click here. However we take a look at Scott and find that the defect must only be a short oversight, and cannot justify a prolonged operation of an office without the oath process in place.

You cannot consider this authority, but somebody at least went through the trouble of making multiple FOIA Requests.
