Welcome to the Duquesne Criminal Law Journal. Founded in 2009, the Journal is a student run organization which publishes scholarly works semi-annually in an online format. Its goal is to bring a venue to analyze all issues in the field of criminal law. The Journal utilizes a unique system of peer review, in which members from the legal community review submissions to the Journal, thus maintaining a higher academic standard.

We believe that the Journal will provide the legal community with a practical, yet stimulating, way to examine the field of criminal law. We encourage you to visit the website frequently and become a regular reader of the Duquesne Criminal Law Journal.
