The Albany Law Review is honored to invite practitioners, legal scholars, and students to begin submitting manuscripts to be considered for its Seventeenth Annual Issue of the Anthony V. Cardona Annual Issue for New York Appeals. Since its inaugural issue in 2010, New York Appeals has striven to be a useful resource for courts, practitioners, and legal academics with the goal of providing in-depth analyses on matters taking place in the New York Court of Appeals and discussions of landmark cases that have changed the laws of New York.
This year’s New York Appeals issue will include a four-part mini-series of judicial profiles of each of the Presiding Justices of the four Appellate Divisions of New York. This issue will also be reviewing a wide breath of topics on legal issues specifically affecting New York State, or instances where New York is on the legal cutting edge. Submissions are welcome that discuss both legislature and case specific issues with some examples including but are not limited to:
- The history of the New York Appellate Divisions and judicial profiles of current Presiding Justices;
- Hot button issues regarding state legislation passed in New York;
- Analysis of pending or recently decided cases before the Court of Appeals;
- Emerging or conflicting issues in New York State law, such as opposing Appellate Division decisions on a particular question of law, that could benefit from further review.
Interested authors should submit their articles through Scholastica or directly to Albany Law Review via email at lawreview@albanylaw.edu. Questions can be directed to Michael Lennon, Executive Editor for New York Appeals, at mlennon@albanylaw.edu. Articles will be reviewed on a rolling basis until all spots are filled. For further information on the process or on the issue itself, please contact Mr. Lennon at the email address provided above.
We look forward to reviewing your submissions!
