History
Kiryat Amishpat was founded in 2001 as the annual legal journal of the Faculty of Law at Ono Academic College. Its first volumes (A, B, and C) were published in the Hebrew years 5761–5763 (2000–2003) under the editorship of Prof. Menashe Shava. Volumes D and E were published in 5764–5765 (2003–2005) under Prof. Dudi Schwartz. Volume F appeared in 5766 (2005–2006) under Dr. Amichai Cohen and Prof. Yedidia Stern. Volume G was published in 5768 (2007–2008) under Dr. Amichai Cohen. Volumes H and I were published in 5769–5770 (2008–2010) under Prof. Gabriel Halevi.

The journal has consistently published articles by leading Israeli jurists, judges, and legal scholars, with anonymous internal and external peer review. A notable innovation for volume J was that accepted articles (after review) are uploaded to the journal's website upon acceptance, with abstracts posted immediately and full articles after editorial work, reducing the time gap between writing and publication. The journal remains active as part of Ono Academic College's research authority.
