Question

I have to write a short paragraph on the Judicial Review. I need another opinion besides my own.

Do you think that judicial review gives too much power to the Supreme Court? Why or why not?

Answer 1

The Supreme Court of the United States spends much, if not most, of its time on a task which is not delegated to the Supreme Court by the Constitution. That task is: Hearing cases wherein the constitutionality of a law or regulation is challenged. The Supreme Court's nine Justices attempt to sort out what is, and what is not constitutional. This process is known as Judicial Review. But the states, in drafting the Constitution, did not delegate such a power to the Supreme Court, or to any branch of the government.

Answer 2

Nice. Thank you
