The ACLR Articles Committee works diligently to select articles that are timely and relevant to the field of American Criminal Law, clear and polished, thoroughly researched, and that speak to the journal’s practitioner reader base. The article team does not publish student-authored work. As a general rule, the ACLR looks for articles ranging from approximately 8,000-13,000 words, though the staff of the ACLR reserves the right to make exceptions. The ACLR follows the Texas Manual of Style. Citations in manuscripts should appear in footnotes, not endnotes, and follow The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation (21st ed.). Please upload your submissions as a .doc or .docx file.
