CIRCUIT REVIEW (JRNL7163-67)
1 credit per semester for member. 1 to 2 credits per semester for editor. 
Maximum of 6 credits.

The Seton Hall Circuit Review is a student-run scholarly journal that was founded on the recognition that while thousands of cases are appealed to the federal courts of appeals, only a handful are ever reviewed by the Supreme Court of the United States.  This deferral leaves tremendous power in the hands of circuit judges.  For practitioners, the courts of appeals provide binding law, and until the Supreme Court speaks, a practitioner's respective court of appeals is the supreme arbiter of the law for that circuit.

Based on this, premise the Circuit Review aims to publish scholarly articles and student comments that analyze recent important developments in all areas of the law at the federal appellate level.  Members of the Circuit Review are expected to write a comment that addresses a novel topic within the journal's scholarly focus, as well as participate in all facets of the publication process.

New members are chosen by the current Editorial Board upon, at the end of the first year of law school, and based on a journal write-on competition.  The Editorial Board is chosen by election of the entire Circuit Review membership.

Course is graded on a Pass/D or Fail basis. To receive credit for the Circuit Review, a student must first complete a comment for the Journal.
