Preferred term

judicial restraint  

Definition(s)

  • Judicial restraint is too often simply an endorsement of a judge who upholds a democratically enacted law on constitutional grounds. If the term is only a way to agree with a judge's decision, it has little jurisprudential value. [Source: The Encyclopedia of Political Science; Judicial Restraint]
