Separation of Powers the roles of the main governance bodies
Separation of Powers. To prevent tyranny and better protect the ideals of justice and individual liberties, constitutional democracies are founded upon the core principles of separate and independent government func- tions combined with checks and balances. The U.S. Congressional Research Service describes the historical intent of separation of powers as drafted into the U.S. Constitution: The framers viewed human nature as inherently bad, and sus- pected that the natural inclination of men is to abuse power. Tyranny, to them, was “the accumulation of all powers, legisla- tive, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands.” To separate the functions of government into independent branches was necessary but not sufficient. Each branch would also need the ability to stand as a check against the others. No branch, how- ever, would possess an overruling influence over the others, and each would be provided with the necessary means to resist encroachment from the others.137 In the 47th paper of The Federalist, Xxxxx Xxxxxxx explained, “The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive and judici- ary, in the hands of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elected, may justly be pronounced the very defi- nition of tyranny.”138 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx also strongly supported the separation of powers between the three branches, and ex- pressed most concern regarding independence of the judiciary: 136. Id. (emphasis added). 137. XXXXXXX X. XXXXXXXX, CONG. RSCH. SERV., R44334, SEPARATION OF POW- ERS: AN OVERVIEW (2016). 138. THE FEDERALIST NO. 47 (Xxxxx Xxxxxxx). 0000] XXXXXXXX XXXXX INTERAGENCY AGREEMENTS 65 “The complete independence of the courts of justice is peculiarly essential in a limited Constitution.”139 Similarly, U.S. Senator Xxx X. Xxxxx, Xx., who was chairman of the Senate select committee that investigated the Watergate scandal, wrote: [J]udicial independence is the strongest safeguard against the exercise of tyrannical power by men who want to live above the law, rather than under it. The separation of powers concept as understood by the founding fathers assumed the existence of a judicial system free from outside influence of whatever kind and from whatever source, and further assumed that each indi- vidual judge would be free from coercion even from his own brethren.140 In the instances when branch functions are shared the original intent at the country’s founding was that such overlap exists for the purpose of checks and balances: Madison recogn...

Separation of Powers. Receiver does not dispute, and hence concedes, that she never filed reports otherwise required by §447.539, that she never delivered the funds otherwise required by §447.543, that the moneys are being held to make refunds to utility customers (L.F.75), or that the moneys have been held longer than the statutory abandonment period. (Rec.Brf., 18). Thus, receiver concedes that the law has been violated. Nevertheless, receiver argues that, assuming the Treasurer has the authority to enforce her duty to receive unclaimed property, the circuit judge has superior authority to dispose of the funds (including interest thereon) in violation of the law. She cites cases invoking the separation of powers doctrine, but that doctrine is inapplicable here because the UPA does not permit the Treasurer to exercise powers constitutionally assigned to the judiciary.
Separation of Powers. The power of government is divided between three branches: executive, legislative, and judicial

Such notice shall specify (A) the Distribution Date upon which final distribution on the Certificates of all amounts required to be distributed to Certificateholders pursuant to Section 5.02 will be made upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the Corporate Trust Office, and (B) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, distribution being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee therein specified. The Trustee shall give such notice to the Master Servicer and the Certificate Registrar at the time such notice is given to Holders of the Certificates. Upon any such termination, the duties of the Certificate Registrar with respect to the Certificates shall terminate and the Trustee shall terminate or request the Master Servicer to terminate, the Collection Account it maintains, the Certificate Account and any other account or fund maintained with respect to the Certificates, subject to the Trustee’s obligation hereunder to hold all amounts payable to Certificateholders in trust without interest pending such payment. (b) In the event that all of the Holders do not surrender their Certificates for cancellation within three months after the time specified in the above mentioned written notice, the Trustee shall give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of such Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the amounts distributable to such Holders. If within two years after the second notice any Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall, subject to applicable state law relating to escheatment, hold all amounts distributable to such Holders for the benefit of such Holders. No interest shall accrue on any amount held by the Trustee and not distributed to a Certificateholder due to such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for payment of the final distribution thereon in accordance with this Section. (c) Any reasonable expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with any termination or liquidation of the Trust Fund shall be reimbursed from proceeds received from the liquidation of the Trust Fund.

Following a sale or conversion in accordance with the foregoing sub-Section 9.4(b)(i) or (ii), and upon making reasonable provision, in the determination of the Trustees, for the payment of all liabilities of the Trust or the affected Class as required by applicable law, by such assumption or otherwise, the Shareholders of each Class involved in such sale or conversion shall be entitled to receive, as a Class, when and as declared by the Trustees, the excess of the assets allocated to that Class over the liabilities allocated to such Class. The assets so distributable to the Shareholders of any particular Class shall be distributed among such Shareholders in proportion to the number of Shares of that Class held by them and recorded on the books of the Trust. (c) Upon completion of the distribution of the remaining proceeds or the remaining assets as provided in sub-section (b), the Trust (in the case of a sale or conversion with respect to the Trust) or any affected Class shall terminate and the Trustees and the Trust or any affected Class shall be discharged of any and all further liabilities and duties hereunder and the right, title and interest of all parties with respect to the Trust or such affected Class shall be cancelled and discharged. Upon termination of the Trust, following completion of winding up of its business, the Trustees shall cause a certificate of cancellation of the Trust’s certificate of trust to be filed in accordance with the Act, which certificate of cancellation may be signed by any one Trustee.
