Submission Process
JELL publishes articles and book reviews from professors and practitioners. Manuscripts from all points of view are welcome, and JELL does not maintain a position on any issue. Our goal is to publish timely pieces demonstrating sound legal analysis and policy arguments representing a broad spectrum of positions.
Unsolicited Manuscripts
JELL encourages the submission of unsolicited manuscripts on timely issues relating to environmental or natural resources law and litigation. Submissions must be unpublished. If any portion of the manuscript has been published previously, or will be published elsewhere, the author must include this information at the time of submission.
How to make a submission
Prospective authors may submit manuscripts to JELL in Microsoft Word (or comparable format) via Scholastica, email, or by mail in hard copy. Manuscripts submitted by mail will not be returned.
