Under the current system most law reviews accept articles during submission cycles and accept a set number of articles until their issue is full .  This process results in a massive influx of articles to journals based on an arbitrary system wide submission date (for details about the process see the ExpressO submission guide here , here and here .) … Given Orin’s prominence a “decent” law review who could publish his work today may lose out in an expedite fight during the regular submission calendar.  It seems the system doesn’t benefit authors or journals.  Now granted, Orin isn’t your average scholar, and as such he has options.
