CONFEDERATE STATES OF AMERICA
CONSTITUTIONAL COURT
PURPOSE AND HISTORY
During the 2001 National Constitutional Convention held at the Edison Walthall Hotel in Jackson, Mississippi May 10th – 11th the Delegates decided to create a State’s Powers check and balance against the C.S.A. Supreme Court to prevent the abuses seen over the past many decades of the U. S. Supreme where that court not only usurped the authority of the Legislature by effectively writing law but changed the meaning and intent of the founding fathers on Constitutional questions. It was decided that between three and nine Justices would be elected by the delegates from among the delegates to serve on this Constitutional Court who would have original and exclusive jurisdiction over the ratified Constitution of the Confederate States of America. It was further determined that once the various Confederate State Governments had been re-staffed and resurrected (under occupation) that they would elect governors and the Council of Governors would then elect the Justices from among these governors. Among other considerations, this new Court was assigned the mission of reviewing the Constitution of the C.S.A. of 1861 for revisions and updates which would be presented to the national Senate once such had been re-staffed and elected.
The Court has the right, power and jurisdiction to impeach Provisional Government Officials.
