The Western Journal of Legal Studies is a student-run peer-reviewed biannual law review at the University of Western Ontario Faculty of Law that was established in 2012. It publishes scholarly work by students,[1] lawyers, and academics and focuses on Canadian and international law.[2][3]
The journal has been cited by the Supreme Court of Canada,[4] the Alberta Court of Appeal,[5] and several trial courts.[6]
History
Prior to 2012, the University of Western Ontario Faculty of Law was one of a few Canadian law schools without a law review. The journal's creation was supported by dean Ian Holloway, assistant dean Michael Lynk,[7] and Suzanne Chiodo.[8]
