Public Documents Of The State Of Connecticut 1893 Vol 2 Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from Public Documents of the State of Connecticut, 1893, Vol. 1 Now, with the legislative department constituted as we have shown, and with the executive department elected by' the legislative department, let us examine the judicial department. The constitution provides that judges Of our higher courts 'shall be nominated by the Governor, and ap pointed by the General Assembly, that is, the legislative department. Thus we see that with a Governor elected by the legislative department, members of the judicial depart ment are nominated by him, and are appointed by the same legislative department. Thus, to a great extent, we find that under our defective Constitution the three depart ments of government are merged in one - the legislative department. The framers of the original Constitution did not intend this, but intended that the three departments should be kept separate. This condition of things has arisen through the patchwork of amendments that has been attached to the original Constitution, and through the changes in population and pursuits of the people.
