You are invited to submit for consideration applied tax policy and legal tax research manuscripts for presentation at the 2009 ATA Midyear meeting.  Submitted manuscripts will also be considered for publication in The ATA Journal of Legal Tax Research.  All manuscripts will be blind reviewed and must follow the style guidelines of The ATA Journal of Legal Tax Research.

We encourage submission of research that:
