Which process is occurring when a court invalidates a law for being unconstitutional?
Judicial Review
Is Judicial Review the power to declare a law unconstitutional?
Not entirely. Judicial review involves the power to declare a law or Executive Order unconstitutional, but the heart of judicial review is analyzing a law or order relevant to a case before the court to determine whether it is in keeping with constitutional principles, both as written and as applied.A law may be constitutional on its face (as written), but be used in a way that violates the Constitution (as applied). Under these circumstances, the law itself is not declared unconstitutional, but it is prevented from being used in an unconstitutional manner.Judicial review also applies in the many, more abundant cases where the court analyzes a law and upholds the law against a constitutional challenge.
