The Justice Branch operates with complete independence from the Executive Group, answering only to the foundational laws of the Liminal State. It makes decisions on the legality of all laws and decisions facing the Executive Group or Branches, and concerning Citizens Initiatives; always prior to them being voted on and and going into effect.
Just like all Branches, typical Justice Branch management is handled by the Branch Officials. For the most important questions, such as whether to remove an official from their position or the determination of legality of decisions, regulations, and laws in their final form (and prior to a deciding vote), decisions are made using Justice Branch Screenings. A Justice Branch Screening utilizes a Global Justice Branch Vote, where the decision concerning lawfulness is decided by a majority vote among all Leadership Groups within the Justice Branch. In this way there is a large pool of qualified and highly knowledgeable legal experts weighing in on the most important decisions, crossing generational divides and political perspectives and limiting the effects of politics and personal preferences in those outcomes.
The Justice Branch also provides advice at every step of the decision making process, up until a Justice Branch Screening is needed, which prevents wasted energy on what might be an otherwise unlawful implementation. The initial review for legality of potential decisions, regulations, and laws (prior to their final form, at which a Justice Branch Screening is required) is decided using the Justice Delegate Vote Method.
With the work of the Justice Branch, there is never a question about the validity of a decision or process taking effect, nor any excuse to retroactively reinterpret or deny enforcement outside of a new vote. This is the inverse of the United States, where laws are passed and then fought over; where courts have the power to overturn any decision and a handful of partisan judges with different perspectives and agendas can affect how laws are interpreted or enforced, regardless of initial intent or citizens wishes.
While the Justice Branch is responsible for investigating all government abuses, The Branch Officials of the Justice Branch have the right to assign these cases to Independent Departments. In the case of any issues within the Justice Branch, they are obligated to appoint independent outside investigators to investigate.
Depending on the implementation of the Liminal State, the Judicial Branch may be charged with handling the prisons. If this is the case, it should not fall under the preview of the Enforcement Agency. A better alternative would be to have prison management fall under the Lateral Branch between the Justice Branch and the Health Branch, to ensure that inmate and societal welfare is maximized.
