Legislative Answer There are three branches of the American government: legislative, judicial, and executive. They operate in a system of checks and balances to ensure that no one branch is able to dominate over the others usurping their designated powers and responsibilities. Answer: By far, the weakest branch is the judicial branch. The judiciary can take no action whatsoever on its own doing. The matters it deals with must come before it within a proper case or controversy brought by litigants in a lawsuit. Although the judiciary has the power to declare laws unconstitutional, they may not do so on their own and they may not do so unless those clearly are unconstitutional. The judicial branch has no police force or army to enforce any of its decisions. It has to rely on the executive branch for that. The legislative branch has complete control over the judicial branch, fixing its budget, creating various courts and even fixing the number of justices that sit on the Supreme Court. The judicial branch relies on and depends on the other branches more than the other branches depend on the judicial branch.
