Explain the role of stare decisis, the doctrine of political questions, and the pros and cons of judicial activism.

In a new document, answer the short essay question found below. The essay should be three typed, double-spaced pages. If your essay is longer than this, you will need to revise and streamline your answer. Please use one-inch margins and a standard twelve-point font.
Edit your work carefully. It is very important that you create a persuasive, well-written argument (rather than just covering the materials). Your paper should contain no errors in grammar, spelling, and syntax and should make clear transitions between the sentences and paragraphs.

Use the cases of Gideon v. Wainwright (formerly Gideon v. Cochran) and Betts v. Brady to illustrate how the Court selects cases, how evidence is presented to the Court, and what types of evidence are considered. Also, explain the role of stare decisis, the doctrine of political questions, and the pros and cons of judicial activism. Based upon your analysis of these issues, was the Court correct in hearing Gideon’s case? Why or why not?
