"There is hardly a political question in the United States which does not sooner or later turn into a judicial one" (Alexis de Tocqueville, 1835). Join UNH Constitutional Law Professor Daniel Pi to explore the judiciary's evolving role in our constitutional framework and its power to check and constrain executive action. We'll discuss historical precedents illuminating how individuals' and courts' judicial philosophies may affect their opinions. Finally, we'll consider current lawsuits and how these cases fit into the broader story of checks and balances in American governance.
