∙ 15y agoThe President DOESN'T/CAN'T override a veto. The President is the one who does the vetoing. CONGRESS passes a proposed law and the President can veto it and send it back to Congress for reconsideration. The Congress can then OVERRIDE the Presidents veto and the legislation then becomes law against the President's wishes.

∙ 13y agoWhen a bill (a proposed law) has been passed in Congress, it goes to the President of the United States to be signed. If the president does not sign the bill, he vetoes the bill.
A veto means that the bill will not be passed unless 3/4 of Congress is in favor of the bill (to pass the bill in Congress before, only a simple majority is required).
The supreme court is in no way involved with the creation of a new law.
