Selection Process:
Our selection process runs year round, and articles will constantly be reviewed as they come in. We will inform you of the publication which your article is slotted for - either our Fall or Spring Edition - once the selection process is complete.

Expedited Reviews:
Please note that while we will make every attempt to review your manuscript by the requested date, our workload might result in a delayed response.

Article Guidelines:
We strongly prefer article manuscripts under 25,000 words (including footnotes). However, we are open to taking larger submissions - as we are more concerned with the quality of the work rather than the length Articles under 10,000 words will be considered in the same way.

All articles should be cited in footnotes rather than endnotes, conforming to the requirements of the 20th edition of The Bluebook, and the 11th edition of the Texas Law Review Manual on Usage and Style.

We look forward to reviewing your submissions!
