Why can’t we petition the Supreme Court for redress in citing the President for not enforcing the law of the land? With all of the lawyers on this site, there has to be an angle where we can have the judicial branch of government exercise its oversight of the Executive branch of Government.
I mean, we can petition the court when a law as applied is thought to be unjust and unconstitutional. When that is found to be the case, then the Supreme Court overturns the law. Why won’t it work for when the law is considered part of the legal code of the USA and not enforced? Why can’t we seek redress for laws passed by the Legislative branch of Government, Signed by the Executive Branch; but not enforced? Wasn’t there also funding passed for enforcement of these laws?
Maybe we can set a long lasting precedent where laws that are passed by the representatives, signed by the Executive and funded by the representatives MUST be enforced in the most strenuous manner. What a hoot that would be!
I have since learned that there is a process where a valid law can be enforced through a “writ of Mandate” I don’t know much about it or how you go about having such a court order issued.
Any well versed Freepers out there that can shed some light on this??
