Judicial review would technically require that a suit relating to a given issue to be filed. IOW, it would be conducted similar to a simple civil suit, but only that it involves a constitutional issue as it relates to a specific law (which would be the object of the suit in terms of the constitutionality of the law and/or whether or not the law was constitutionally applied in a given case/ruling).flemingovia:Does a judicial review need statements? It is not a trial.
In this order:
A suit is filed that questions the constitutional basis of a law, and/or how the law was applied (or in most cases, whether or not a court decision was in compliance with the Constitution, the Law, or principles of law and precedent).
The defendant (in this case is the government itself) and would be represented by the AG (being also the defense attorney for the government/state).
The Plaintiff would be the party upon whom or on behalf of the suit was filed challenging the constitutional application of the law or the constitutional quality of the law itself.
It is incumbent upon the plaintiff to properly file an argument on behalf of his/her position and the AG defends the government's position in an initial statement.
This would then be followed by a back and forth rebuttal and questions from the sitting justices to determine unstated details, etc.,,,
Then the judges decide.
