Does the judicial review give the Judicial branch the right to study precedents?
Everyone has the right to study precedents, including you. All that means is reading the written opinions (decisions) of cases that are considered guidelines for use in deciding similar cases. And yes, the justices study precedents (or make their law clerks do it). Judicial review is an implied constitutional power that allows courts to evaluate a questioned law in a case they're hearing and determine if the law is constitutional. If the justices decide the law is unconstitutional, then it's nullified and becomes unenforceable.
