CASE STUDY

Our legal system is a crucial part of maintaining oversight of liberty and of the two other branches of our Federal and State governments, the legislative and executive branches. Our judges have come under attack by President Trump in various settings when decisions have not upheld his Administration’s perspectives (see other resources in this week’s folder for videos). Let’s take a look at exactly how individuals become Federal judges or Supreme Court Justices.
Remember – there was an empty Supreme Court seat and President Obama’s candidate, Merrick Garland was NOT EVEN INTERVIEWED by the Senate – no confirmation hearing at all. Who got that seat? how did that happen – keep these things in mind as you read. As justices retire, the President of the United States will nominate replacements who support his viewpoints thus shaping the courts and laws for decades. Think about the process!!

What happened during the confirmation of the latest 3 Justices – Justice Kavanaugh, Justice Barrett and Justice Jackson? How did their confirmations affect the court’s decisions?

Go to one or both of these websites:
https://www.supremecourt.gov/about/biographies.asp…
http://cafc.uscourts.gov/home/the-court/judges/judge-biographies/

Select a judge or justice and discuss their credentials and background.
Select a case for which the judge or justice is famous and discuss why that case is important.

 

Write a 1,000+ word essay describing how/where the people should fit into the checks and balances model.

/in /by

We The People (13th Edition) 2021

Assignment:
Our system of checks and balances is designed to protect the citizenry from an overly powerful government. You can see this in Figure 2.2: “Checks and Balances,” in We the People. But nowhere in this graphic is any reference to the people (the voting public), even though our democracy is described as a government by the people.

Write a 1,000+ word essay describing how/where the people should fit into the checks and balances model. For example, should the people have the right to vote on legislation? To impeach the president? To vote on federal court appointees? Be creative but realistic (no outlandish suggestions, please!).

You can also write about why it’s important for the people to be part of the checks and balances system, how popular sovereignty factors in, ways the people can currently be active in governmental affairs and ideas as to how to increase participation.

Your essay should be double-spaced, size 12 font, one inch margins, no name / date / class info.
