When disputes arise, Americans from all walks of life turn to their judicial system to adjudicate their legal rights and responsibilities. The ultimate interpreter of American law and the American Constitution itself is the United States Supreme Court. We present a collection of essays in this journal that explain how the Court functions. They also illustrate how it commands the respect of Americans and plays a vital role in the constitutional system. We are fortunate to feature an introduction by Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist, and contributions by a number of the nation's premier legal scholars. http://america.amgovcms.iip/publications/ejournalusa/0405/ejournal/april-2005_html_html Wed, 30 Jul 2008 16:43:28 -0400
