Preferred term

judicial decision making  

Definition

  • While the executive and legislative branches are the most visible aspects of government, the third branch—the judicial branch—is in many ways more important. In many countries, it is the judiciary that rules on whether the actions of the other branches are constitutional and, thus, permissible. [Source: International Encyclopedia of Political Science; Judicial Decision Making]
