inherent-powers doctrine

Read a random definition: naulum

A quick definition of inherent-powers doctrine:

The inherent-powers doctrine is a principle that gives courts the ability to handle various matters that they are believed to have natural authority over. This includes things like making rules for how court procedures work, managing the court's budget, regulating how lawyers practice law, and taking care of general court maintenance. This power comes from how people interpret a part of the Constitution called Article I, Section 8, Clause 18.

A more thorough explanation:

The inherent-powers doctrine is a principle that allows courts to deal with various matters over which they are believed to have intrinsic authority. This includes:

  1. Procedural rulemaking
  2. Internal budgeting of the courts
  3. Regulating the practice of law
  4. General judicial housekeeping

The power is based on interpretations of Article I, Section 8, Clause 18 of the Constitution.

For example, the inherent-powers doctrine allows courts to create rules and procedures for how cases are handled in their courtrooms. It also allows them to manage their own budgets and regulate the conduct of lawyers who practice in their courts. These powers are considered inherent because they are necessary for the courts to function effectively and efficiently.
