THE EASY CORE CASE FOR JUDICIAL REVIEW

---

ABSTRACT
This paper defends judicial review on the ground that judicial review is necessary
for protecting “a right to a hearing.” Judicial review is praised by its advocates on
the basis of instrumentalist reasons; i.e., because of its desirable contingent consequences
such as protecting rights, promoting democracy, maintaining stability,
etc. We argue that instrumentalist justifi cations for judicial review are bound
to fail and that an adequate defense of judicial review requires justifying it on
non-instrumentalist grounds. A non-instrumentalist justifi cation grounds judicial
review in essential attributes of the judicial process.
In searching for a non-instrumental justifi cation, we establish that judicial review
is designed to protect the right to a hearing. The right to a hearing consists
of three components: the opportunity to voice a grievance, the opportunity to be
provided with a justifi cation for a decision that impinges (or may have impinged)
on one’s rights, and the duty to reconsider the initial decision giving rise to the
grievance. The right to a hearing is valued independently of the merits of the decisions
generated by the judicial process.
