    The United States comprised of three levels of government: Federal, state, and local levels. All levels of government create, manage and oversee laws on their distinct levels of government. However, none of these levels have specific knowledge in any one area of expertise and therefore rely on extending their lawmaking abilities to additional governing bodies known as administrative agencies. “An administrative agency is an official governmental body empowered with authority to direct and supervise the implementation of particular legislative acts ("Administrative agency," 2016, p. 1).” Administrative agencies serve as an extension of the three levels of government and are created to address specific or complex matters beyond the expertise of legislators and address serious social problems and oversee complex matters of governmental concern and manage various levels of government in day to day operations.

    The conventional usage of the term judicial review could be more accurately described as “constitutional review,” because there also exists a long practice neither of judicial review of the actions of administrative agencies that require neither that courts have the power to declare those actions unconstitutional nor that the country have a written constitution. Such “administrative review” assesses the allegedly questionable actions of administrators against standards of reasonableness and abuse of discretion.
