Constitutional Law

What is Constitutional Law?

According to Dictionary.com, Constititional Law is "the body of law that evolves from a constitution, setting out the fundamental principles according to which a state is governed and defining the relationship between the various branches of government within the state."  Wikipedia describes: "Constitutional law is a body of law which defines the role, powers, and structure of different entities within a state, namely, the executive, the parliament or legislature, and the judiciary; as well as the basic rights of citizens and, in federal countries such as the United States and Canada, the relationship between the central government and state, provincial, or territorial governments."

The United States Constitution and Declaration of Independence is one of our most popular American Government documents!
