- Nonacquiescence abstract "In law, nonacquiescence is the intentional failure by one branch of the government to comply with the decision of another. It tends to arise only in governments that feature a strong separation of powers, such as in the United States, and is much rarer in governments where such powers are partly or wholly fused. In the context of lawsuits, executive nonacquiescence in judicial decisions can lead to bizarre Kafkaesque situations where parties discover to their chagrin that their legal victory over the government is an empty one.[citation needed] Nonacquiescence can also possibly lead to a constitutional crisis, given certain critical situations and decisions.In the United States, certain federal agencies are notorious for practicing nonacquiescence (essentially, ignoring court decisions that go against them and refusing to accept their validity as binding precedent). The Social Security Administration and the Internal Revenue Service are particularly well known for such conduct. Although executive nonacquiescence has been heavily criticized by the federal courts, as well as the American Bar Association, the U.S. Congress has not yet been able to pass a bill formally prohibiting or punishing such behavior.In one of the most serious instances of nonacquiesence in the U.S., U.S. President Andrew Jackson ignored the U.S. Supreme Court ruling that Georgia had stolen Cherokee lands for the Cherokee Land Lottery in the early 1830s, when the first gold rush occurred. The Cherokee were then forced off their own land onto the Trail of Tears, and subsequently defrauded in the Treaty of New Echota. President Jackson was never officially held responsible for his blatant contempt of the court, about which he reportedly said: "They have made their decision, now let them enforce it". That particular colorful quote is now thought to have arisen from a misquote by Horace Greeley, as the actual words from Jackson to John Coffee were as follows: "The decision of the supreme court has fell still born [sic], and they find that it cannot coerce Georgia to yield to its mandate."".
