Here is the July 2018 Edition of the most-downloaded recent papers (those announced in the last 60 days) from SSRN’s U.S. Administrative Law eJournal, which is edited by Bill Funk. With the start of the new school year (and some other personal and professional obligations this month), I haven’t been able to give these papers are read yet, and thus won’t be adding any editorial notes this month.
