The Judicial Branch is a system of federal courts and judges that creates laws made by the legislative branch and enforced by the executive branch. The Judical Branch has nine members that make up the Supreme Court. The branch applies laws to individual cases and decides if laws violate the Constitution. It is involved with the Supreme Court and Federal Courts. The estimated requests for the review of the cases sent to the Supreme Court is 7,500. Although it is stated that only 150 of the request really get reviewed. When the Supreme Court decides to review the issues it is called a writ certiorari. Only four of the nine Supreme Court judges need to agree to the case for it to be reviewed.
