''Law and Inequality: A Journal of Theory and Practice'', or the ''Journal of Law & Inequality'', is a journal of legal scholarship published by a student-run group at University of Minnesota Law School. The journal is published twice a year, summer and winter. The journal was founded in 1981 to examine the social impact of law on disadvantaged people.〔("Law & Inequality - U of MN Law School" )〕 It is noted for taking articles that address its central mission, but need not fall into the traditional format of legal scholarship. Law and Inequality publishes articles by legal scholars and practitioners, law students, and non-lawyers. Members of the staff are selected on the basis of their writing abilities and their commitment to eliminating inequality. Editors are elected from among staff members to serve during their third year in law school. Some notable authors of articles in the ''Journal of Law & Inequality'' include Catharine MacKinnon,〔.〕〔.〕 Richard Delgado,〔.〕 Cass Sunstein,〔.〕 Ruth Bader Ginsburg (while a judge for the District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals),〔.〕〔.〕 Derrick Bell,〔.〕 Jo Freeman,〔.〕 William J. Brennan, Jr. (after he retired from the Supreme Court),〔.〕 Peter Edelman,〔.〕 and Trina Jones.〔.〕 The Journal of Law & Inequality has also been cited numerous times by federal and state courts, including: *Notable Supreme Court case United States v.
