Call for Papers: Yale Law Journal Pocket Part

We've been asked by  The Yale Law Journal Pocket Part to extend and invitation to our readers to submit commentaries for two end-of-year issues: one issue will focus on new developments in state courts and the other will focus on new developments in state legislatures. Here is their call for papers:

Our goal is to bring critical focus to an area of lawmaking that deserves greater attention in the legal literature, and we invite you to submit a commentary on a state law topic of your choosing. Commentaries may explore a legal development at the state level that has not been extensively reviewed in legal scholarship and the popular press, or present a novel argument on a timely issue that has received attention. Submissions should be no more than 1,500 words. We encourage authors to write in a style accessible to policy-makers and practitioners. For a detailed style guide and instructions for submitting your piece, please visit our website, www.thepocketpart.org, and follow the link for "Submissions."

The deadline for submissions for both issues is Friday, November 2, 2007
