The constitution does not indicate any executive power wrt the writ - thus none exists.

The Constitution doesn't say one way or the other, and it doesn't require that the power be explicitly stated for it to be legal. So a power may be assumed to be legal unless determined to be unconstitutional.

And I won't even tweak you about the typo. Wrt?

Sorry for the late reply. Took a day off to do some fishing (beats working anyday).

WRT = "With respect to"
