The Constitution Instructs How To Curb Judicial Activism

Here is a very interesting case that has been processed through the federal courts. It is a lawsuit based upon patent infringement. I ask you to research federal practices where you will find that case law is what courts go by more than statue law as you read the below cite.

Robert Kerton, an economics professor at University of Waterloo in Canada, says the case demonstrates the need to reform the patent system, allowing real producers to get down to business.

``But don't hold your breath,'' he said, ``because thousands of attorneys really love the tangled system.''

Remember that judges are also lawyers so when they make case law they very well could be taking care of their own clique. That may be why instead of clarifying the law as they should, they work to make it confusing. You see the same thing in the court of justice as well as civil courts, which is only to be expected when judges abandon the tenants of natural law and make their own opinion the law. If a number of legislative members were not lawyers or influenced by special interest groups that gain by the system of laws as it now is, it would still have an uphill battle to repair the system since judges having the ability to arbitrarily decide what the law actually meant. That was one reason why the Constitution had judges take a constitutional oath, the Senate was given the power to impeach judges, and the Constitution limits judges to the term of good behavior. Still the Senate has violated their own constitutional oath and not acted to impeach these judicial enemies of the U.S. Constitution.
