For Authors
Submit ManuscriptCardozo Law Review seeks to reflect the vibrant, intellectually stimulating atmosphere of the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law, and as such, we invite article submissions on all legal subjects. While we do not abide by a strict word limit, we prefer articles that are under 35,000 words. In general, we do not publish case comments or book reviews in the print journal. Those pieces may be submitted for consideration in our online companion journal, de•novo, through Scholastica. For more information on the types of articles that de•novo publishes, please click here or email our Head de•novo Editor at cardozo.l.rev.de.novo@gmail.com.
Due to the volume of quality submissions that we receive, we are unable to consider student-submitted articles at this time.
Submissions Timeline
Our most active submissions periods, and thus the best times to submit your article, are during the peak Spring submissions period (March-April) and the Fall submissions period (August-September). Offers of publication are extended on a rolling basis during the peak submissions periods. While we do monitor submissions throughout the year, we usually complete the article-selection process for a given volume during the Fall submissions period.
Selection
Our article selection committee is comprised of the Executive Board, Submissions Editors, and Articles Editors. Each article undergoes three levels of review before an offer is extended.
Contact Information
If you have any questions regarding submissions, please contact our Submissions Editors at bernstein.clrsubmissions@gmail.com and davani.clrsubmissions@gmail.com. Please note that the volume of submissions generally precludes our ability to respond to individual status-update requests, particularly in regards to expedite requests.
