		On the court of appeals, Scalia began to expound on his longstanding belief that courts and judges have a limited role in the three-branch system of government established by the Framers of the Constitution.

		The Court upheld the legislation creating the post, but Scalia wrote a forceful dissent, arguing that Congress had impermissibly vested at least some of the traditional executive power to prosecute in the hands of someone not fully within the supervision and control of the president--an arrangement that had no support in the Constitution.
