The "2026 SoK: Scope and Mission of CS&Law" is a virtual symposium scheduled for October 9, 2026, organized by the ACM Computer Science and Law Symposium. This event aims to explore the intersection of computer science and law, focusing on the interdisciplinary nature of the field and its evolving scope and mission. The symposium seeks to systematize the intellectual scope of CS&Law, addressing the significance of the conjunction "and" in its name and identifying previously published works that exemplify various aspects of this interdisciplinary domain. Additionally, the event will discuss the mission of CS&Law, considering what the symposium aims to accomplish beyond providing a forum for intellectual exchange and community formation. The intended audience includes the current CS&Law community, prospective members, academic department chairs, tenure-and-promotion committees, and funding sources, all of whom are invited to engage in discussions about the community's goals, growth, and future directions.
