Abstract
Both Congress and the President can exert influence over the federal judiciary by rewriting legislation Congress feels the court misinterpreted, enforcing court decisions, or exercising the power of appointment and confirmation. The fact that the Court exists as part of a constitutional dialogue with other government branches was brought into clear focus in June of 2005 when the Supreme Court ruled against long-time homeowners in a Connecticut eminent domain case. Congress and the states reacted swiftly believing the Court had overstepped its boundaries.
