Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Senate's power of approval over Supreme Court nominees serves as a check on the Court's power, ensuring that only candidates that align with the Senate's views are appointed to the Court. The other statements are inaccurate. The legislature does not exercise a check on federal judiciary power through its power of appointment, as this power lies with the executive. The president does not have veto power over the Court's decisions, as the Court exists to interpret and apply the law, not to create laws subject to veto. Lastly, the Supreme Court cannot overturn presidential vetoes, as this power lies solely with the legislative branch.
