The power of a court to review actions and decisions made by other agencies of government is called?
Judicial ReviewThe Supreme Court's ability to analyze Acts of Congress (Legislative branch) and Presidential actions or Executive Orders in terms of their constitutionality is called "judicial review." If the Court decides law or order under review unconstitutional, it will be nullified and rendered unenforceable.It is important to note that the Supreme Court can not initiate investigations into Congress or the President, but must wait for someone to petition an appropriate case or controversy directly related to a particular law or order before the Court can evaluate it and take action.Judicial review is part of the system of checks and balances the three branches use to prevent each other from becoming too powerful.The Supreme Court set precedent for this interpretation in their ruling in the case of Marbury v. Madison, (1803), when the Justices concluded Section 13 of the Judicial Act of 1789 was unconstitutional. Congress had granted the Supreme Court original jurisdiction to issue writs of mandamus (an order compelling an official to take action) to government officials, an action Chief Justice John Marshall claimed was unconstitutional because it was outside the scope of authority the Constitution allowed the Supreme Court (the validity of Marshall's argument is debatable).For more information, see Related Questions, below.

In general, judges have judicial immunity, which protects them from being sued for actions taken in their official capacity, even if those actions cause stress or emotional distress.

However, if a judge engages in behavior that is outside their judicial role, such as criminal conduct or egregious misconduct, there may be grounds for a lawsuit. It's essential to consult a legal professional to evaluate the specifics of any situation.
