REFEREE AND PEER REVIEW PROCESS
All of the articles in the Manitoba Law Journal Robson Crim Edition are externally refereed by
multiple independent academic experts after being rigorously peer reviewed by faculty editors, as well as
reviewed by student staff. Usually 3 external peer reviewers assess each piece on a double-blind basis.
, INFORMATION FOR CONTRIBUTORS
The editors invite the submission of unsolicited articles, comments, and reviews. The submission
cannot have been previously published. All multiple submissions should be clearly marked as such and
an electronic copy in Microsoft Word should accompany the submission. All citations must conform to
the Canadian Guide to Uniform Legal Citation, 9th Edition. Contributors should, prior to submission,
ensure the correctness of all citations and quotations. Authors warrant that their submissions contain
no material that is false, defamatory, or otherwise unlawful, or that is inconsistent with scholarly ethics.
Initial acceptance of articles by the Editorial Board is always subject to advice from one or more external
reviewers.
The Editorial Board reserves the right to make such changes in manuscripts as are necessary to
