Davis and the confederate congress conspired to eliminate an entire branch of government.

GOPCap is right about this, as usual. I found the following in Davis' "State of the Union" address to the Confederate Congress on Feb 26, 1862:

I invite the attention of Congress to the duty of organizing a supreme court of the Confederate States, in accordance with the mandate of the Constitution.
