Answer 2

A check the judicial branch has on the legislative branch is the ability to declare laws unconstitutional. This check is important to limited government because it ensures that laws passed by the legislative branch do not violate the rights protected by the Constitution. By having the power to overturn laws that are unconstitutional, the judicial branch helps maintain the balance of power between the branches of government and prevents any one branch from becoming too powerful. This ultimately helps to uphold the principle of limited government and protect individual rights.
