Question

Now that you've become familiar with the terms, judicial activism and judicial restraint, which course of action should our federal courts follow? Why is this course of action good for our country?

Honest answer please.

Answer 1

Federal courts should stop legislating from the bench and imposing their POV over that of the representatives of the people. Provision to recall and vote out judges needs to be enacted. Provision to overturn decisions based on the fact that they usurped legislative function, needs to be enacted. Juries should be the final authority in trial courts. The Juries should hold the judge in contempt if he tries to be their boss. Neither just follow the law as written if they don't like it get it changed they shouldn't rewrite the law to suit their on opinions!
