Judicial review is the capability of the Supreme Court to review a law and determine if it's constitutional or not, meaning to decide if it follows the constitution and should be a U.S. law. They can also deem a government action as unconstitutional and determine what to do after that. An official definition of judicial review is "the power of a court to adjudicate the constitutionality of the laws of a government or the acts of agovernment official."
