What is a “Judicial Review”?

0

A Judicial Review is a High Court case in which the court examines whether a public body such as a Primary Care Trust has acted in accordance with its public law duties. These are the duties provided in the statutes and regulations which govern the PCT, the obligations imposed on all public bodies by the common law and the Human Rights Act.

Judicial review is the power of the Supreme Court to overturn a court ruling which may be considered unconstitutional. The first judicial review took place in 1796 in the case of Hylton vs The United States, a case involving carriage tax.
