Poder de un tribunal de declarar anticonstitucionales los actos del poder legislativo. 3, record 1, Spanish, - revisi%C3%B3n%20judicial
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
La revisión judicial se interpreta de diversas formas [...] En aquellos sistemas legales que cuentan con un Tribunal Constitucional y una constitución por escrito, este concepto incluye frecuentemente el poder de un tribunal de revisar la constitucionalidad de una ley o de un acto oficial llevado a cabo por un empleado o agente gubernamental. El tribunal tiene la potestad de revocar dicha ley, anular el acto del poder ejecutivo u ordenar a un funcionario público que se conduzca de cierta forma si estima que la ley o el acto en cuestión son inconstitucionales. En el Reino Unido, se refiere a la potestad de los tribunales de declarar que las acciones de los entes gubernamentales son contrarias a la ley o que violan la Convención Europea de Derechos Humanos [...] 4, record 1, Spanish, - revisi%C3%B3n%20judicial
