As reported in the Sunday Star Bulletin editorial section, the State Senate has passed a bill that would include the Judiciary in the process of reviewing applications for pardons. This bill will now be going before the House.
Is this appropriate? Where the Constitution gives this power to the executive branch, should - or, constitutionally, can - another branch get involved? I don't think so.
