AP US Government
Unit 2 – Branches of Government
Topic 2.9
How might an increase in public trust in the Judiciary affect its legitimacy?
It would weaken its legitimacy due to increased scrutiny from the public eye.
It would enhance its legitimacy as it relies on perceived fairness and impartiality for enforcement of rulings.
There wouldn't be any significant change as Judiciary operates independently from public opinion.
It would delegitimize other branches by making them appear less trustworthy in comparison.
