Res Gestae

Res Gestae is the online companion to the Fordham Law Review.  Res Gestae provides scholars and practitioners with a forum to respond to articles published in the Law Review and to comment on contemporary legal issues.  Submissions to Res Gestae should be about 3,000 words, in Microsoft Word .docx format, with light footnotes according to the conventions found in the 19th edition of The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation.
