The Green Bag

The Green Bag

"The Green Bag: An Entertaining Journal of Law" is a legal journal dedicated to publishing "good writing" about the law. Founded in 1997 by three former-classmates of the University of Chicago Law School, "The Green Bag" is published quarterly. In calling itself an "entertaining" journal, it is not strictly a journal of humor and unserious work. Rather, "The Green Bag" aims to publish articles that are brief, readable, and meant to provoke discussion.

The journal was inspired by the original "Green Bag", a legal journal published between 1889 and 1914.

"The Green Bag" is frequently irreverent. For the past several years, subscribers have received each year a bobblehead doll depicting a Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States.

In addition to the periodical, the Green Bag Press publishes other works of legal interest, including "The Green Bag Almanac and Reader", an annual collection of the year's best legal writing, and "In Chambers Opinions of the Justices of the Supreme Court of the United States".
