The final say on what a statute means typically rests with the courts, particularly the judiciary. While the legislature creates and enacts laws, it is the responsibility of the courts to interpret those laws in the context of specific cases. Judicial interpretations can clarify, enforce, or even challenge legislative intent, making courts the ultimate arbiters of statutory meaning.
