The Constitutional Avoidance Doctrine: The Constitutional-Doubt Canon [Part 3 of 3]
Manage episode 451805671 series 2791259
We will be explaining the Constitutional-Doubt Canon, a Supreme Court doctrine that prioritizes interpreting statutes to avoid constitutional conflicts. The Canon encourages courts to find constitutionally sound interpretations even if not the most obvious reading of the law. This approach allows for Congressional amendment if the Court's interpretation is deemed inappropriate, promoting a more collaborative process between the branches of government.
