Peer Review Process
Batulis Civil Law Review will publish only papers that strictly follow the guidelines and manuscript preparation. All submitted manuscripts are going through a double-anonymous peer review process. Those papers are read by editorial members (upon field of specialisation) and will be screened by the Managing Editor to meet the necessary criteria of publication within two weeks. Every submitted manuscript that passes this step will be checked by iThenticate to identify any plagiarism. Manuscripts will be sent to two reviewers, based on their historical experience in reviewing manuscripts or based on their field of specialisation. The time period for review is three weeks. Batulis Civil Law Review has reviewed forms in order to keep the same items reviewed by two reviewers. The editorial board will make a decision upon the reviewers' comments or advice. Reviewers will give their assessment on originality, clarity of presentation, and contribution to the field/science. Batulis Civil Law Review has four kinds of decisions:
- Accepted, as it is
- Accepted by Minor Revisions (let authors revise within the stipulated time)
- Accepted by Major Revisions (let authors revise within the stipulated time)
- Rejected (generally, on grounds of outside of scope and aim, major technical description problems, lack of clarity of presentation)
