the appointment of judges
The executive branch has no 'power over' the judiciary, but it does nominate people to be new judges.
hey can fire people
The executive check over the legislative branch is the power of vetoing laws. The executive check over the judicial branch is the power of judicial appointment -- the president can pick a judge to take the seat of a judge who leaves the supreme court.
The executive branch of government has the power to veto bills proposed by the legislative branch. The executive branch of government has the power to overturn laws and rulings made within the judicial branch of government as well!
The powers of the judicial branch are contained in Article III of the Constitution, but those powers are not over the executive branch...they are separate from the powers of the legislative and executive branches.
The Executive branch gets to choose candidates for federal judgeships, including Supreme Court Justices. The President also has the power to pardon people convicted of federal offenses, Since the President controls the Department of Justice, he has some leeway in how laws are enforced.
The executive branch appoints federal judges subject to Senate confirmation. Therefore, the President can try to choose people that share his judicial philosophy. The president can also grant pardons for federal crimes.
This power is given in Article II, section 2, clause 2.
The Powers to Tax and to Declare War are held by the Legislative Branch, exclusively as well as the Power to Impeach the president or vice president. These powers can be found in Article One of the United States Constitution.
Some checks and balances the Executive branch has on the other branches are: Over the Legislative branch: The President must approve of legislation the Legislative Branch has passed before that legislation becomes effective. If the President vetoes that legislation, the Legislative Branch may still pass the legislation, but it now must be by a majority of 2/3 of each house of Congress, instead of the usual simple majority. Another is that while Congress passes the laws, it is the Executive Branch that carries them out. Without the Executive branch's co-operation, the actions of the Legislative branch might not have any effect. Over the Judicial Branch: The President is the one who chooses the people who are to be the judges and justices of the Judicial Branch. In addition, the Executive Branch through its police power is the branch which enforces the judgments of the Judicial branch. Again, without the co-operation of the Executive Branch, the actions of the Judicial Branch might have no effect.
The judicial branch has power over both the executive and legislative branches by judicial review. This basically means the review by a court of law of actions of a government official or entity or of some other legally appointed person or body or the review by an appellate court of the decision of a trial court.
Yes, every branch has checks over each other.
