Tools for Shaping Policy *As the Supreme Court decides cases, it determines policy in three ways: judicial review  interpretation of laws  overruling or revising its previous decisions Judicial review—the Supreme Court’s power to examine the laws and actions of local, state, and national governments and to cancel them if they violate the Constitution.

Tools for Shaping Policy (continued) stare decisis – “let decision stand” -once the Court rules on a case, its decision serves as a precedent, or model, on which to base other decisions in similar cases.

Limits on the Supreme Court Court’s activities limited by: types of issues and cases agenda ex:) only cases that come from elsewhere lack of enforcement power ex:) Abraham Lincoln the system of checks and balances.
