2. Scope: The U.S. Supreme Court has broad powers to review any federal or state law or executive action for its constitutionality.
3. Nature: It is wide and fully established, making the U.S. Supreme Court a powerful institution in maintaining constitutional supremacy.
4. Effect: The court can not only invalidate laws but also has played a decisive role in shaping civil liberties and federal policies.
