Vol. 21, Issue 1 of the Journal of Appellate Practice & Process

I have been an errant blogger.  Of the many projects occupying my time, getting out the most recent issue of The Journal of Appellate Practice & Process has been near the top of the list.  I am happy to say that the issue is almost done and will hopefully be online this week.

When the University of Arizona James E. Rogers College of Law acquired the Journal, one of our goals was to make it a free online resource. The Journal will be available at www.appellatejournal.com. At that site, you can sign up to receive email notifications about new issues. While we don't yet have the full archives up, we hope to have them soon.

What can you expect in the first digital issue of the Journal? Well, the articles are pretty exciting and timely.  Here is a sneak peak at the table of contents:

 

Jon O. Newman	On Reasonableness: The Many Meanings of the Law’s Most Ubiquitous Concept
Thomas L. Hudson	Structuring Appellate Briefs
Luke Burton	Less is More: One Law Clerk’s Case Against Lengthy Judicial Opinions
Timothy R. Johnson Maron W. Sorenson Maggie Cleary Katie Szarkowicz	COVID-19 and Supreme Court Oral Argument: The Curious Case of Justice Clarence Thomas
Margaret D. McGaughey	Remote Oral Argument in the Age of Coronavirus: A Blip on the Screen or a Permanent Fixture?
Pierre H. Bergeron	COVID-19, Zoom, and Appellate Oral Argument: Is the Future Virtual?

I plan on blogging about the articles once the issue is published.  Keep a lookout on the website and watch your email for an announcement that the issue is online.
