The system of checks and balances is a system that allows each branch of government to watch over each other. This makes sure that one branch of government does not gain more power or use its authority wrongly. For example, the legislative branch makes the laws and the executive branch can veto those laws. This makes it harder for the legislative branch to pass a law. The judicial branch also has the power to declare a law as unconstitutional, and make sure the law never gets passed. The legislative branch also has the power to veto a president of judge that is not doing their job properly. The legislative branch approves the choice of the executive branch for who they appoint as judges.
