ACTEC Law Journal Call for Articles

Below is a Call for Articles issued by the ACTEC Law Journal:

The ACTEC Law Journal has an opening in its spring 2017 issue and therefore will be conducting exclusive reviews over the next few weeks. Any contribution submitted to the ACTEC Law Journal between now and October 24, 2016 will be evaluated for publication purposes by November 1, 2016.  By submitting an article or essay, the author agrees to immediately accept a publication offer with the ACTEC Law Journal should one be extended.  The author is not required in advance to withdraw any article or essay previously or contemporaneously submitted for consideration elsewhere. However, the author may not accept an offer of publication from another journal for any article or essay submitted to the ACTEC Law Journal’s exclusive review process during this window, unless the ACTEC Law Journal indicates that the submission will not receive a publication offer. Author requests to further expedite the exclusive review process will be accommodated to the extent practicable.  Any contribution accepted through this exclusive review process will be published in the ACTEC Law Journal‘s second issue of the year, which is slated for publication in early spring 2017. 

The ACTEC Law Journal is a faculty-edited, peer-reviewed academic journal that explores tax, trust and estate topics in depth, and also deals with the practical consequences and applications of the rapidly changing rules in these areas of law. We welcome submissions of articles of traditional length for scholarly articles; shorter pieces of 2,000 to 10,000 words are welcome as well.

If you have an article you would like to submit, please e-mail Bridget Crawford a copy of the article and your CV to  bcrawford@law.pace.edu with the subject line “ACTEC Exclusive Article Review.” We look forward to reading your submissions.
