City University of New York Law Review A student-run publication devoted to producing Legal Scholarship for Social Justice. GLENN
Special Events Editor

The City University of New York Law Review is a student-run publication devoted to producing public interest scholarship, engaging with the public interest bar, and fostering student excellence in writing, legal analysis, and research. Unlike the law review organizations at other law schools, membership in the law review is open to all students in good academic standing and selections are made on the basis of student writing, editing abilities, and personal statements with special attention to achieving a diverse staff which reflects the student body. The City University of New York Law Review is published twice-yearly, in Winter and Summer. The Law Review is available digitally for free on our website.

Welcome to Volume 29.1 of the CUNY Law Review.

We’re excited to share the scholarship, ideas, and conversations shaping this year’s issue: the role of AI in the workplace, the future of due process in virtual courts, the rights of transgender athletes, the changing relationship between workers and large institutions, and the legal structures that shape power and democracy.

We are grateful to the authors who entrusted us with their work. Thank you Nina Farnia, Beena Ahmad, Julia Elhai, Payal Doctor, Lily Manshel, and Pascal McDougall for making Vol. 29.1 possible.

If you’re part of the CUNY School of Law community, whether as a student, alum, faculty member, practitioner, or supporter, we’d love for you to follow along.

Give us a follow, share this post, and help us bring our social justice scholarship to a wider audience.

The RSVP is now live for our Spring 2026 Symposium: The City is Ours!

RSVP here: https://forms.office.com/r/1AzULfLUKB
When: April 17th 6-9pm & April 18th 9am-5pm
Where: CUNY School of Law, 2 Court Square W, Long Island City

In the wake of Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s historic victory, we hope to build on the years of mutual aid, tenant organizing, and popular mobilization in response to deepening inequality and state inaction that made this moment possible. Through panels and participatory workshops, we have dedicated our symposium to collectively imagining a world in which cities serve as sites of shared governance, material security, and democratic participation.

Panel themes include:

Radical Municipalism: Theory, History, and Law
Mutual Aid and Community Power
Tenant Power: Housing Justice and Unionizing
Radical Municipalism and Economic Democracy
Participatory Democracy: From Budgeting to Neighborhood Assemblies

Look out for more information in the coming weeks about our great panelists and exciting keynote speaker! And join us on April 17 and 18 as we gather scholars, activists, and attorneys at the forefront of this discussion, and share your own voice as we chart a new path forward for NYC!
