Judicial restraint : ウィキペディア英語版 | Judicial restraint Judicial restraint is a theory of judicial interpretation that encourages judges to limit the exercise of their own power. It asserts that judges should hesitate to strike down laws unless they are obviously unconstitutional,〔http://www.bartleby.com/59/14/judicialrest.html〕 though what counts as obviously unconstitutional is itself a matter of some debate.〔http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2029687〕 Judicial restraint is sometimes regarded as the opposite of judicial activism. In deciding questions of constitutional law, judicially restrained jurists go to great lengths to defer to the legislature. Judicially restrained judges respect stare decisis, the principle of upholding established precedent handed down by past judges.〔http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,961645-6,00.html〕 ==Leading voices in judicial restraint== Former Associate Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr., considered to be one of the first major advocates of the philosophy, would describe the importance of judicial restraint in many of his books.〔http://ndpr.nd.edu/news/25262-oliver-wendell-holmes-jr-legal-theory-and-judicial-restraint/〕 One noted academic described Associate Justice Felix Frankfurter, a Democrat appointed by Franklin Roosevelt, as the "model of judicial restraint".〔''A Justice for All'', by Kim Isaac Eisler, page 11; ISBN 0-671-76787-9〕 When Chief Justice Rehnquist overturned some of the precedents of the Warren Court, ''Time'' magazine said he was not following the theory of judicial restraint.〔 However, Rehnquist was also acknowledged as a more conservative advocate of the philosophy.〔http://articles.cnn.com/2005-09-03/justice/rehnquist.legacy_1_william-hubbs-rehnquist-judicial-legacy-supreme-court?_s=PM:LAW〕
