SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Richard Pacelle attempts to answer the question, "What is the proper role for an non-elected institution within a representative democracy?" He examines how non-elected judges should use their role of judicial review, and whether non-elected judges serve as protectors of the "insular minorities," i.e., those groups that lack access to political power.
