| | Consider the “Congressional Accountability for Judicial Activism Act,” which would allow Congress to reverse Supreme Court judgments concerning the constitutionality of an act of Congress by a 2/3 vote. | | | In his memorandum to the Attorney General, Roberts takes aim at judicial review itself: “It is argued,” he writes, “that divesting the Supreme Court of jurisdiction over a particular class of cases would undermine the constitutional role of the Court as the ultimate arbiter of constitutional questions. | | | However murky his views may be on some questions of law, we know quite a bit about his attitudes on court-stripping. |

| | National Review: Courting trouble: only a frontal assault on the power of the courts can restore America's constitutional balance |
| | All the supposed conservative judicial triumphs of recent years, from rolling back racial preferences to restoring federalism, have been won by narrow majorities; with three Supreme Court appointments likely in the next five to seven years, all of them could be reversed. | | | Again, these proposals fail to challenge judicial imperialism at its root: the courts' claim always to have the last, authoritative word on constitutional interpretation. | | | Madison, often cited in support of a monopoly, actually stands for a far more modest claim, namely that courts must apply the Constitution; nowhere does it deny that the other branches must do the same according to their own best lights. |

| | Judicial inquiry into the guilt or innocence of the owner could be dispensed with, the Court held, because state lawmakers, in the exercise of the police power, were free to determine that certain uses of property were undesirable and then establish "a secondary defense against a forbidden use. | | | Due to the belief that the state courts would be more jealous of local rights than of federal claims, review had lain as of right where the constitutional claim was advanced and denied. | | | I, therefore, would remand the case to the three-judge court for findings as to the innocence of the lessor of the yacht - whether the illegal use was of such magnitude or notoriety that the owner cannot be found faultless in remaining ignorant of its occurrence. |
