The doctrine of judicial review refers to the ability of a court to examine statutes, treaties and regulations that contradict provisions of existing law. This means that the courts are authorized to review decisions made by the executive and legislative branches.

This is an important faculty of the Supreme Court, even though it is not mentioned in the Constitution. Instead, this authority derives from the structure and history of the Constitution. This ability of the Court ensures that no law goes against the spirit of the Constitution. It also limits the freedom of the other branches when it comes to legislation.

They make serious rulings. It gives the authority to decide whether a law is constitutional. It was the famous case of Marbury v. Madison in 1803.

What is an example of the kind of discrimination successfully ended by
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

The National Organization for Women (NOW ) is an organization for the defense of women's rights. Its approach prioritizes achieving economic equality and rights equality. The organization has also been active in the fight for the right to abortion, reproductive freedom, against racism and intolerance in defense of the LGBTQIA community.

One example of the kind of discrimination successfully ended by efforts of NOW is unequal access to public places. The Oak Room was a bar and a restaurant in the Plaza Hotel in New York City that only received men during weekdays (monday through Friday) until 1969, when NOW members organized a protest. Similarly, women were not allowed to enter McSorley Irish Tavern in New York city until August 10, 1970, after NOW's lawyers filed a case of discrimination against the bar in the District Court and won. The bar was forced to admit women and the bathroom became unisex.
