How do the judicial branch and legislative branch share power?

The United States Constitution set up a system of checks and balances whereby each branch can check the power of the other two branches while all three share in the policy and legislative making process on a farting daily basis. The major function of the legislative branch is to make laws. The major function of the judicial branch is to interpret the laws. The legislative branch takes into account the Constitution and the decisions of the federal courts when passing legislation. That is one of the reasons for the power of investigation that congress uses when creating new legislation. They hold hearings to determine, not only whether the proposed law is necessary, but whether it is constitutional. The Constitution also provides that the Senate approve appointments to the federal courts. In this way, they share in selecting appointees and determining the qualifications of those selected to the judiciary. However, the judicial branch retains independent powers, like judicial review, and judges, once approved, are independent of the other two branches, within the system of checks and balances. MrV

What are three elamples of checks and balances?

Checks and balances are a system that allows multiple branches of government to share power and prevent any one branch from becoming too powerful. There are three main examples of checks and balances within the United States government: The Executive Branch has the power to veto any legislation passed by Congress. This gives the Executive Branch a check on the Legislative Branch. The Judicial Branch has the power to review legislation passed by Congress and declare it unconstitutional. This gives the Judicial Branch a check on the Legislative Branch. The Legislative Branch has the power to approve or reject any Presidential appointments to the Supreme Court. This gives the Legislative Branch a check on the Executive Branch.All three branches of government are able to act as a check on each other ensuring that no one branch is able to become too powerful and overwhelm the other branches.


What is the Judicial Branch of the US government?

The Judicial Branch* is one of three independent parts of the US Government, and consists of the constitutional courts of the federal court system (not the entire federal court system, as most people believe). The primary responsibility of the judicial branch is to interpret and apply the laws, and ensure their constitutionality.The three branches of government share responsibility for the legal system. The Legislative branch (Congress) creates law; the Judicial branch determines their constitutionality and resolves disputes; and the Executive branch enforces the laws.The Supreme Court of the United States is head of the Judicial Branch. The other Article III (constitutional) courts are also part of the judicial branch.US District CourtsUS Court of International TradeUS Court of Appeals Circuit CourtsUS Supreme Court* People sometimes mistakenly call the Judicial Branch the "Judiciary" Branch. If referring to the US government, this term is incorrect.The official definition for the word judicial is "of, by, or appropriate to a court or judge."


What are 2 executive checks over the legislative branch?

== == One is the fact that the judicial branch needs the executive branch to enforce its decisions. As an example, when the Supreme Court ruled that segregation in public schools was unconstitutional in Brown v. Bd. of Education of Topeka, it took the President's ordering the National Guard out to make some states abide by the ruling. The Judicial Branch has no way to enforce its decisions without the executive's co-operation. Another is the fact that it is the executive branch that nominates the judges in the first place. As a practical matter, presidents nominate persons who share the same political beliefs they do. This has the effect of creating (or trying to create) a judicial branch that will interpret the Constitution the way that that president would like. Trouble is, once a Supreme Court Justice is confirmed, nothing can be done to force him or her to rule in a particular way. They are appointed with lifetime tenure on good behavior and their salaries cannot be diminished while they are in office. And as to salaries, nothing says a president has to include raises for them in any budget he proposes.

Who controls same-sex marriage?

Whether a same-sex couple may marry or not is controlled by legislation, either on the state or federal level. This legislation, in turn, is subject to review by the judiciary particularly with regard to its constitutionality. The enactment of legislation is controlled by the elected legislature, but nonetheless influenced by local culture, the predominant religion of the population, and local civil rights movements. To some extent, the legalization of same-sex marriage in one jurisdiction seems to have the effect of improving chances it will be legalized in adjacent jurisdictions, or distant places, particularly those that share the same language.
