I would say that it is one with a system of checks and balances, so that each branch can check (or review and potentially limit) the power of another branch, and the branches of government thereby balance each other. For example, under the U. S. Constitution, the Judicial branch has the power and authority to review a law passed by the Legislative branch as to whether the law comports with the U. S. Constitution and, if not, declare it to be unconstitutional. The Legislative branch, in turn, has the power to then pass another law to replace the one earlier ruled unconstitutional. Also, the Legislative branch has to approve (or not) the appointment of a federal judge and to impeach and remove a federal judge once appointed who engages in unlawful behavior. Another example is that the Executive branch is empowered to implement and enforce laws, but the Legislative branch has to pass a budget to give the Executive branch the money to operate, thereby acting as a check on the Executive branch.
Checks and balances
The judicial branch of government can overrule the executive branch of government. The overruling of an executive order can be done in the supreme court system.
The purpose is to prevent one of the branches of the government from dominating the others. There are 3 branches of government: executive power (president), legislative power (congress) and judicial power (Supreme Court).
Checks
The US government has a system of checks and balances.
The Articles of Confederation created a government that had only one branch of government. It was the Legislative Branch.
A system of checks and balance prevents any one branch of government from having a lot of power. All three branches of the government are kept in balance with a checks and balance system in place.
Checks and Balances. This is where each branch of government is put in place and has an equal amount of powers so that no one branch becomes to powerful.
Assuming this is the United States Government...Every branch of the government is supposed to equal. The government is devised to be a system of checks and balances...Meaning that if one branch tries to do something let's say unethical another branch of the government will have process check the situation and restore balance to the system.
To ensure that one branch of government wouldn't hold all the power, the system of checks and balances was created.
