The term judicial powers refers to the power of the Judicial Branch of the United States government to hear cases and interpret, enforce or nullify laws and statutes in order to render verdicts.
Types of Judicial Powers
Judicial powers can fall into several different categories. Here are some examples of judicial powers:
Original Jurisdiction: This is when a court is first hearing a case. This court is then said to have original jurisdiction.
Appellate Jurisdiction: This is when a case has been appealed (the original decision questioned) and another court hears the case.
Redress: This term refers to dealing with damages and relief.
Diversity Jurisdiction: The ability of federal courts to hear cases involving people from different states.
Subject Matter Jurisdiction: Federal courts have jurisdiction of cases involving federal law.
Judicial powers are subject to certain limited constraints including:
Precedent: Precedent is based on findings and law from prior cases. Lower courts must follow precedent set by higher courts. For example, if the U.S. Supreme Court says that the constitution protects abortion in Roe v. Wade, all lower courts must abide by that ruling.
Stare Decisis: This means "Stand on the Decision." This refers to the concept that courts should rely on precedent rather than changing law.
Courts are allowed to exercise judicial power in order to change or nullify laws that are not in line with others (such as state laws vs. federal laws or international laws) or if laws are not in line with the constitution. The Supreme Court is always considered the highest court in the United States of America. It is up to the Supreme Court to be able to sufficiently and effectively interpret constitutional law in the United States.
