Judicial review
Federalists
They do not "validate" or "invalidate" laws. They interpret the US Constitution and find the laws cited in the cases they review either Constitutional or Unconstitutional. But they cannot pick and choose at random which laws they will rule on. The cases they review have to work their way through the entire Federal Court System before they reach the Supreme Court (if they ever do).
That principle is the separation of powers and the system of checks and balances.
Judicial review is the power of courts to review and potentially invalidate laws or actions of the government that are deemed unconstitutional. This process allows the judiciary to ensure that laws and government actions comply with the constitution. Judicial review impacts the legal system by serving as a check on the other branches of government, ensuring that they do not overstep their constitutional authority.
No. Only the Judicial branch has the Constitutional authority to declare laws unconstitutional.

Constitutional independence refers to the separation of powers and the independence of the judiciary in a democratic system. It means that the three branches of government – executive, legislative, and judicial – have separate powers and functions, ensuring a system of checks and balances. The judiciary is independent and free from interference, enabling it to interpret and apply the laws impartially.
