Montesquieu Believed the government should divide itself according to its powers which would create the three branches in the government Judicial, Legislative, and Executive.
Montesquieu thought that a limited monarchy was the best type of government, with a monarch and its underlings, with whom the power was shared with. Basically, a monarch with limited power and some other peopple with a little power
Montesquieu believed that the best form of government was a system of checks and balances with separate branches of government—executive, legislative, and judicial—each having its own powers and responsibilities. This system would prevent any one branch from becoming too powerful and violating the rights of the citizens.

I believe you are referring to Montesquieu's Doctrine of the Seperation of Powers which contendes taht there are three types of political power: Executive (governmental), Legislative (law-making), and Judicial (judging).

One power the Executive Branch has over the Legislative branch is the power to VETO any of the Legislation's Bills. The Legislative Branch can still pass the bill to make it law, but it must go back through to be passed again by the House & Senate (I believe twice) before the Executive Branch's VETO power is null and void.
