How does congress check the judicial power?

Answer 1

Oh, dude, so like, Congress can check the judicial power by passing laws that clarify or overturn court decisions, changing the number of judges on a court, or even impeaching judges. It's like a game of Chess, but with more paperwork and less cool outfits. So yeah, that's how they keep each other in check, like a dysfunctional family at Thanksgiving dinner.

Answer 2

Congress has two major abilities to check the actions of the Judicial branch:

1. Congress must approve of any appointment to the Federal judiciary, so Congress can control the membership of the judiciary.
2. Congress can pass new laws which take into account prior judicial rulings to redefine future judicial interpretations. So long as the law does not run afoul of Constitutional prohibitions, Congress can pass a law which changes how the Judicial branch must view a particular legal topic.

Answer 3

It depends on whose power they are checking.

They check the executive through the override veto process, appointment process, the ratification process, and the impeachment process. They check the judicial through the appointment process, the impeachment process, the amendment process, or passing laws that countermand judicial rulings they disagree with. They check the power of the state governments by passing overarching federal laws that use the express limited powers as hooks to permit enforcement of laws outside of those powers.

Answer 4

Congress can impeach the president, and Supreme court Justices. They can also override a president's veto with a 2/3 majority vote.
