Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: When governments choose to or are compelled to create an independent judiciary for the handling of any class of rights claims, the judges themselves will necessarily choose to protect the access of claimants to the courts. The necessity of this choice stems from the fact that were the judges to allow other governmental bodies to limit access to justice, their need for continued performance of their functions would be reduced. In other words, if the government regularly ignores the courts, the courts will fight back lest the judges lose their positions, respect, and livelihoods. The concern of the courts to protect access to justice, however, extends more to some types of rights than to others. Specifically, independent judges should be especially concerned to protect rights that when violated prevent citizens from making rights claims, such as rights against summary execution, torture to compel confession, and so on.
