Judicial Branch Supreme Court

The Supreme Court is the only court designated in
the constitution. Within it is the Chief Justice
of the United States, and eight associates. Being
the highest court it is the last resort for all
federal court questions. The Supreme Court has the
power to determine whether something is

Separation Of Powers And The System Checks Balances
1,153 words
A significant aspect of the American Political
System, and one I consider the most important, is
the system of checks and balances. This concept is
rooted in the classical theory of separation of
powers, by which the legislative, executive, and
judicial powers of government were vested in three
different units. The purpose of this, and of the
later development of checks and balances, was to
ensure that governmental power would not be used
in an abusive manner. Classical political
philosophers fr...

the mixing of the powers would enable the
government to hold all of the power and trample on
the rights of the individual. The federalist
realized this and addressed the issue by saying
that in a government of mixed powers...
