Submission
As part of our policy, all authors are particularly required to ensure that manuscripts have been written well in English (UK) or Bahasa (Indonesian). Alternatively, authors are highly encouraged to use citation tools like Zotero and Mendeley that provide various citation styles to ease the manuscript's citation to be written correctly.
It is solely the author’s responsibility to ensure that the manuscript submitted to the Journal is original and plagiarism free. Editors have the right to decline the submission when it is found that the manuscript is detected with plagiarism. All manuscripts will be reviewed through a doubled blind review by our reviewers. The Journal, after manuscripts receive comments and suggestions from reviewers, has the rights to accept or reject manuscripts have been submitted to the Journal.
Due to a very high number of manuscripts submitted to the Journal, we normally need at least three months prior to our decision whether manuscripts are accepted for publication or rejected from publication. However, all authors are advised to submit manuscripts earlier than three months from the regular date of publication as it is our standard by which all articles should pass rigorous reviews before the publication.

Peer Review Process
Submitted manuscripts will be pre-reviewed by the editors. The Editor(s) will determine whether the manuscripts have conformed to the submission guidelines of the Journal. Manuscripts which have conformed to the Journal’s style will be peer-reviewed. The Journal applies a double-blind peer-review process which involves reviewers of experts in the relevant field of legal studies. Final decision of manuscript acceptance is solely decided by the editors according to reviewers' comment.
Plagiarism and self-plagiarism are not allowed. The Journal encourages authors to ensure their manuscript is original and plagiarism free. However, the Journal uses a plagiarism tool to screen manuscripts before they are published. Detection of overlapping and similar text is used there and so quotations and appropriate citations have to be used whenever required.
The editorial board makes a decision upon the reviewer's comments or advice. The task of reviewers is to give an assessment on originality, clarity of presentation, contribution to the field/science. The Journal has four kinds of decisions regarding the submission as follows:
1. Accepted
2. Accepted with Minor Revisions (let authors revised with stipulated time)
3. Accepted with Major Revisions (let authors revised with stipulated time)
4. Rejected (generally, on grounds of the outside of scope and aim, major technical description problems, lack of clarity of presentation)
