THIS BOOK IS A COMPREHENSIVE INQUIRY INTO THE INTEGRITY OF THE FEDERAL COURTS IN INTERPRETING THE U.S. CONSTITUTION.
Abstract
THE AUTHOR AFTER ANALYZING THE HISTORICAL MEANING OF THE CONSITITUTION AND ENGLISH AND AMERICAM LAW CONCLUDES THAT CERTAIN JUDICAL DECISIONS ARE ERRONEOUS BECAUSE THE SUPREME COURT HAS SUBSTITUTED ITS 'WILL' AS TO WHAT THE LAW SHOULD BE FOR ITS 'JUDGEMENT' AS TO WHAT THE LAW IS. A HISTORY OF THE CONSTITUTION IS PRESENTED BEFORE THE EXPLANATION OF WHAT A JUDICIAL ERROR IS. THE AUTHOR THEN ANALYZES COURT DECISIONS IN REGARD TO DUE PROCESS AND THE BILL OF RIGHTS, THE CHANGING FUNCTION OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, THE REPUBLICAN FORM OF GOVERNMENT, AND THE COURT'S ROLE IN DECIDING CASES 'IN LAW AND IN EQUITY.' THE LAST PART OF THE BOOK CONTAINS THE CONSTITUTION, A BIBLIOGRAPHY, AND A TABLE OF CASES....TWH
