The judicial branch is one of the three branches of the United States government. Its main job is to interpret and apply the law. Courts in the judicial branch help make sure laws are used fairly.
The judicial branch reviews laws and explains what they mean. Judges study the law and decide how it should be understood. This helps people and government officials know how to follow the law.
Courts also resolve disputes about the law. When people disagree about a law, they can bring the case to court. A judge listens to both sides and makes a decision based on the law.
The judicial branch also decides if a law follows the U.S. Constitution. If a law goes against the Constitution, the court can say the law is not valid. This helps protect the rights of the people.
