The judiciary (also known as the judicial system or judicature) is the system of courts that interprets and applies the law in the name of the state. The judiciary also provides a mechanism for the resolution of disputes. Under the doctrine of the separation of powers, the judiciary generally does not make law (that is, in a plenary fashion, which is the responsibility of the legislature) or enforce law (which is the responsibility of the executive), but rather interprets law and applies it to the facts of each case. This branch of government is often tasked with ensuring equal justice under law. It usually consists of a court of final appeal (called the "supreme court" or "constitutional court"), together with lower courts.
In the United States, laws are made at the federal and state levels. Laws adopted by legislative bodies - Congress and state legislatures - are called "statutes."
The federal and state courts enforce statutes. They also create law.
These materials describe some of the basic concepts of our legal system, and the roles played by legislatures and courts.

Reason: language
Words like "dumbass" and "idiot" help to bring down the quality of discussion on the forum. I am sure you are still perfectly able to express your arguments without the use of such words.
Stop it.

own inclinations and desires.
Scimitar you are wrong.
The US has three branches of government.
The legislature makes law, and that's it.
The judiciary interprets law, and that's it.
the executive enforces the law, and that's it.
None of these branches go beyond its role.
the purpose is to have a balance and prevent tyranny. You cant have judiciary go beyond its role but interpretation, then you will have an unbalance of power.
If there is a dispute, it is the judiciary who interprets the law as is written, but they do not enforce it, that is not their job nor should it be because then you will have tyranny.
scimitar is dumb and his presence on the forum brings down the quality of the forum.
look at him make stupid and idiotic arguments...even when he is proven wrong he won't accept his mistakes and stubbornly refuse to concede.
They were talking about tribal justice in Afghanistan and he is trying to validate his moronic statement by quote mining US law documents.
"The three branches of the federal government — legislative, executive, and judicial — operate within a constitutional system known as "checks and balances." This means that although each branch is formally separate from the other two, the Constitution often requires cooperation among the branches. Federal laws, for example, are passed by Congress and signed by the President. The judicial branch, in turn, has the authority to decide the constitutionality of federal laws and resolve other disputes over them, but judges depend upon the executive branch to enforce court decisions."
