Decisions Of The First Comptroller In The Department Of The Treasury Of The United States With An Appendix PDF Download

Excerpt from Decisions of the First Comptroller in the Department of the Treasury of the United States, 1882, Vol. 3: With an Appendix The duty of the attorney-general is to advise, not to decide. A thing is not to be considered as done by the head. Of a Department merely because the attorney-general has advised him to do it. You may disregard his opinion if you are sure it is wrong. He aids you in forming a judgment on questions of law; but still the judgment is yours, not his. You are not bound to see with his eyes, but only to use the light which he furnishes, in order to see the better with your own.
