Abstract
As this issue goes to press, the Criminal Justice Review approaches the successful culmination of an intensive year of getting back on schedule. It is anticipated that the Spring 1982 issue will be published in June, 1982.
In programming the Recent Legal Developmentsfeature, which was initiated with the Spring 1981 issue, it has been our plan to devote the Fall issue each year to a retrospective of leading criminal justice decisions from the preceding term of the Supreme Court of the United States. The Spring issue each year will normally survey other happenings in the judicial and legislative arenas.
Our concentrated publication schedule in recent months has inevitably, but temporarily, distorted our normal timetable for this feature. Thus it was the issue dated Spring 1981, rather than Fall 1981, which analyzed decisions from the Supreme Court's 1980 Term which ended in June 1981. We wanted our summary of the Court's latest term to reach our readers shortly after the completion of that term. Because of our current transitional phase, the present issue, which would normally be devoted to the 1980 Term, offers analyses of decisions from the early portion (October-March) of the 1981 Term. The Fall 1982 issue will report on the balance of the current term, andsucceeding issues will then reflect our regular programming sequence.
