- Synopsis
- The considerable independence from the US Congress that federal judges enjoy, says Geyh (law, Indiana U. -Bloomington), is attributable less to constitutional structure than to the emergence and entrenchment of institutional norms that shield the federal judiciary from congressional encroachment that could diminish the capacity of judges to follow the rule of law without fear or favor. He describes a dynamic equilibrium in the relationship between the two branches of government. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc. , Portland, OR (booknews. com)
