We systematize the intellectual scope of the ACM Computer Science and Law Symposium (CS&Law). In particular, we address the meaning and importance of the word ''and'' in the name of the symposium. We identify previously published papers (from CS&Law and other forums) that exemplify different aspects of the CS&Law scope and note that the scope is expected to evolve as the symposium and the community grow and change. To round out our systematization of the still nascent research area, we also discuss the mission of CS&Law: What might the symposium seek to accomplish beyond providing a forum for intellectual exchange and community formation?
