Americans revere both the Constitution and an independent Court that applies the document's provisions. The Court has done many excellent things in our history, and few people are willing to see its power broken. The difficulty with all proposals to respond to the Court when it behaves unconstitutionally is that they would create a power to destroy the Court's essential work as well. (Quote by - Robert Bork)

A lot of people said we don't really need a politician on the court, but for the past 30 years, we have had politicians on the court. I think it would be helpful to have someone on the court who understand how its rulings affect the other arms of government. (Quote by - Jack Roberts)

I really hope that everyone has a good hard look at what the courts have said. They've said clearly to teachers that they want them back in the classroom. They want them respecting the law. That it's important they do that. We've said to teachers that we're ready to talk about the issues that you've raised in the past. We're not willing to talk as a precondition of course to respecting the courts. That would be a disservice to the courts and a disservice to the community,. (Quote by - Gordon Campbell)

In the midst of an undeclared war on terrorism, the courts could ultimately establish new legal precedent. There are issues we have never dealt with before, .. And some of it has to be made up as we go along. It may be why the Supreme Court is not eager to circumvent the ongoing process. At the very least they may want multiple lower courts to look at these cases before they get involved. (Quote by - David Yalof)

I think the court considered that the trial will attract foreign journalists, so it is better that the case be heard in a more presentable court. We might be branded a kangaroo court if the trial were held in a rundown court. (Quote by - Ismael Khan)

Given that the Court has not agreed to rehear a decision in over 50 years, this is not a huge surprise. But the denial makes it crystal clear that since the Supreme Court will not protect home and small business owners, it is now up to state legislatures and state courts to protect people from eminent domain abuse.

(Quote by - Art Pope)

That ruling may bode well for Juan Miguel Gonzalez, who has petitioned the court to recognize his exclusive right to speak for Elian in legal matters, and to be left to raise his child in peace. It would certainly have been very unusual for the court to rule against the father because the law presumes that a person's parent is their guardian, and doesn't appoint outside guardians in the normal course of events, .. For the court to appoint a third-party guardian it would usually need an indication that something was badly wrong in the parent-child relationship, such as abuse. (Quote by - Adam Cohen)
