Judicial Review in Australia

In the United States, judicial review serves to invalidate laws enacted by Congress –
enforced by the executive branch that violate the US Constitution. So, if Congress
enacts a law that is unconstitutional and the executive branch attempts to enforce it,
affected citizens can challenge the law’s validity in federal courts – potentially all the
way to the Supreme Court. This particularly important with respect to laws that infringe
on human rights that are guaranteed by the US Constitution. Although the governments
of other democracies around the world have their own constitutions that to varying
degrees guarantee their citizens human rights, their system of judicial review varies and
is not the same in each country.   
For example, in Canada, the Canadian Supreme Court cannot exercise judicial review
with respect to a law that expressly prohibits such review. In France, a Constitutional
Council considers the constitutionality of laws before they take effect that are referred to
the council by the president, prime minister, and heads of the two chambers of
parliament. Similarly, in Germany and Italy, prior review of laws before they come into
effect is also available in Germany and Italy, if requested by the national or a regional
government. On the other hand, as stated above, in the US, the Supreme Court does
not determine the constitutionality of U.S. laws unless there is an actual case brought
before it.
