What to Focus On

  • The judiciary interprets and enforces law.
  • It settles disputes between subject and subject, and between state and subject.
  • It supports rule of law and protects liberty.

  • Judges may be appointed, elected, nominated, or co-opted in different systems.
  • India uses presidential appointment for Supreme Court and High Court judges.
  • Lower court judges are selected through State Public Service Commissions.

  • Judicial review tests the constitutionality of laws and executive actions.
  • It was invented in Marbury v. Madison (1803).
  • It needs a written constitution and an independent judiciary.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Judicial review was invented by the Indian Supreme Court.

The Indian Supreme Court and the American Supreme Court have the same kind of jurisdiction.

Advisory jurisdiction means the Supreme Court must give an opinion whenever the President asks.
