The Organizing Committee has begun reviewing papers submitted for the September 12-13, 2008 Conference on Empirical Legal Studies to be held at Cornell Law School in Ithaca, NY. In light of a number of requests for extensions and mindful of a deadline that falls near the end of a semester, the CELS Organizing Committee will continue to accept papers for consideration for the conference for a limited period after the April 15 deadline. Papers submitted after April 15 will be considered for inclusion in the conference subject to the availability of space. We expect a hard cutoff date of May 16.
Authors who have already submitted papers may use the SSRN system to submit a revised version. Peer reviewers will consider whichever version is available at the time they undertake their peer reviews.
