Submissions

We are now accepting submissions for Volume III. This is a wonderful opportunity for students to showcase their legal writing to a wide national and international audience. The deadline is 18:00 GMT on Friday, 14th June 2013 and we would ask all interested persons to submit an article, case-note or commentary which will then be considered for inclusion in Volume III of the KISLR. Articles may be submitted to the King's Inns Student Law Review exclusively or through the standard submission protocol.

Submissions Procedure

The KISLR Journal requests that contributors comply with the following standards:

Email Submission: Please note that we strongly encourage submission by email to kislrsubmissions@gmail.com

Alternatively, you may still submit a hard copy if you absolutely must. Please address all manuscripts to: King's Inns Student Law Review, King's Inns, Henrietta Street, Dublin 1, Ireland.

Length Limitations: In an effort to address the growing length of law review articles, we have adopted a policy limiting the length of articles we will accept or publish. KISLR strongly prefers articles under 10,000 words in length including text and footnotes. We will not publish longer articles except in extraordinary circumstances.

Citation & General House Style: Submissions should conform to the OSCOLA Ireland standard. For further information and guidelines on its use please see the following: http://www.legalcitation.ie/page5/files/OSCOLA%20Ireland%202011.pdf

Review Process

The King's Inns Student Law Review carefully considers all submissions that it receives. Our selection process is done through a student peer-review and a vote by the Editorial Board of the KISLR. There is no "best" time to submit a manuscript to the KISLR. All submissions received by the deadline will be considered in like manner. No correspondence (other than an acknowledgement of receipt) will be entered into before the close of submissions.

We notify authors of our decisions by email. We normally do not inform authors of the status of their submissions other than through email. As a matter of policy we do not discuss the reasons for our publication decisions.

We hope to respond within four weeks of the close of submissions, and to publish by October 2013.

Thank you for your interest in the Kings Inns Student Law Review.

Prize for Best Article
