“Judicial
Conduct and Ethics” is the topic of a special issue of the
National Center for State Courts’ Justice System Journal (vol.
28, no 3). This issue brings together prominent judges,
attorneys, court administrators, and scholars with many
different perspectives on judicial ethics, particularly in the
wake of the American Bar Association’s recently adopted Model
Code of Judicial Conduct and the U.S. Supreme Court’s
decision in a landmark case involving speech in judicial
elections: Republican Party of Minnesota v. White (2002).
This issue is also dedicated to the memory of our former
Editor-in-Chief Susette Talarico.

Submissions
to Justice System Journal
The
Justice System Journal invites submission of articles and notes
about courts and court administration that are likely to be of
interest to practitioners and researchers in the field of judicial
administration, broadly defined. Articles
may draw on a variety of research approaches in the social sciences.
The Journal is especially interested in manuscripts that have
implications for justice system policy and that address problems faced
by those with responsibilities for court administration. Short
articles written by practitioners or researchers that describe
management innovations in court systems are encouraged. Short
manuscripts analyzing cases or legal issues of particular relevance to
judicial administration are welcome and will be considered for the
Legal Notes section. The Journal does not normally publish
articles devoted to extended analysis of legal doctrine.
Inquiries
to the editor about topic ideas that authors are considering are
welcome.
Submissions
to the Journal may not be under consideration by any other
publication.
Manuscripts
are evaluated by two or more reviewers; both practitioners and
scholars participate in the review process. To facilitate the review
process, references that reveal the identity of authors should be
deleted from the manuscript and placed on a separate page; the
author’s name, institutional affiliation, e-mail address, and any
acknowledgments should appear only on a cover sheet.
A
manuscript submitted for consideration should be accompanied by an
abstract of approximately 100 words. Manuscripts should be
double-spaced and prepared with ample margins, on 8 1/2" x
11" paper, one side per page. Use of footnotes extensive in
number or length is discouraged; footnotes should be placed on a
separate page, double-spaced. Submission of manuscripts in Journal
style is preferred and accepted manuscripts must ultimately be revised
by the author to conform to it. Accepted manuscripts must then be
submitted either in Word 2000 or WordPerfect 8.0 (or higher)
word-processing format, as an e-mail attachment.
-
Two
(2) electronic copies of all manuscripts—one with a face sheet
with necessary contact information, one without such a face
sheet—should be submitted in either Word or pdf format to

Robert M. Howard
