[QUOTE="ConstitutionCowboy, post: 3425166, member: 745"] It won't require a Constitutional Amendment. The authority to add or diminish the number of judges on the court is determined by an act of Congress, and won't take effect unless approved by the President, or not vetoed by the President and left on his desk unsigned for 10 days(Sundays excepted) while Congress remains in session, or a presidential veto is overridden by two-thirds of each house of Congress. I think a constitutional amendment limiting the number of justices on the Supreme Court would be a good thing. It would prevent stacking the Court for any reason including for political purposes. If a legitimate need arose to add justices to the Court, a new amendment could be enacted and ratified. Woody [/QUOTE]
