Founded in 1970, the Review publishes two issues a year, with each issue averaging between 150 and 200 pages. Each issue consists of any combination of tributes, articles, essays, notes, and comments. Generally, an issue includes at least one article, note, and comment. Occasionally, part of an issue or an entire issue is devoted to a single topic. For instance, in 2016 the Review published a symposium on Harper Lee's books "Go Set a Watchman" and "To Kill a Mockingbird."[2] The Review's online companion, the Cumberland Law Review Online,[3] publishes shorter pieces surveying recent developments with the Supreme Court of Alabama and United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit.
Membership on the Cumberland Law Review is available to those students in the top fifteen percent of the 1L class, determined at the close of the second semester, who successfully complete a write-on competition, known as the Candidates Program, consisting of a Bluebook examination and casenote submission. A student must successfully complete both phases to become a member of the Review. Members of the Review's editorial staff perform cite checks, attend mandatory meetings, write surveys tracking legal developments, and submit a comment for publication consideration.
