The undersigned, Justice of the Supreme Ju-
dicial Court, having taken into consideration
the question propouDded to the Justices OF
said Court by the Executive Council of this
State, and the statement of facts accompanying
it; and having given them careful and mature
examination, respectfully submit the following
answer:
BY the constitution of this State, Article 6,
section g. the Justices of said Court 'shall be
obliged to give their opinion upon important
questions of law, and upon solemn occasions,
when required by the Governor, Council, Sen
ate or House of Representatives" The qaes-
ton propounded must be an important ques-
ton of law, and the occasion upon which it is
put must be a solemn occasion, to justify the
Justices OF the Court in giving an opinion. The
question may be an important question OF law,
but If the occasion is not q solemn one within
the meaning of the constitution, it should not
be answered.
[ respectfully submit, with great Difference
10 the opinion of the other Justices of the Court
that The occasion upon which the question is
pIopounded, as shown by the statement of facts,
is not solemn occasion within the true mean
ing of the constitution.
The object of the constitution under clause of
the consideration appears TO me to be to enable
the Governor, Council, Senate or House of Re-
representatives. to obtain the advice OF the Justices
upon any important question of law, of public
concern, which the body making the inquiry has
occasion TO consider and act upon IN the exer-
else of the legislative or executive powers in
trusted to them respectively, for their guidance
in their action.
1t does not contemplate that one branch of
the executive or legislative department may
properly put to the Justices, questions in re-
gard to the power of another to do an act per-
formed by it. or as to the legal effect of such
act, in the performance of which the body put
ting the question was not requested to act, and
upon which it cannot be required to act. 1t
cannot be that it contempates that the Senate
or House of Representatives may PROFOUND
questions in regard to the power of the Cover
nor to remove officers from office, or as to the
legal effect of an attempted removal, upon
which ii can in no event act. Nor does it ap-
Gil may require the opinion of the Justices, as
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1881-12-02

We concur in the opinion that in the section
Of the Statute defining the tenure of office of
the reporter Of decisions of the Law Court r
s., C. II, %, the words sthe executive" are
employed to embrace, in one general term
both the Governor and Council, who had been
mentioned together in the earlier lines of the
section, and 10 indicate the executive authori-
ty by which the appointment is made; that the
phrase who shall hold bis Office during the
pleasure Of the executive contempates the
same mode of executive action and procedure
in effecting removal, as in making an appoint
ment, and that neither from the letter, reason
nor history of the Statute, nor from compar-
ison OF it, with those in pdri mdterid, can a
just inference be drawn of an intention to d.
vide the removing from the appoin ting power.
We think the section substantially re-enacts,
in this peculiar instance, the general constitu-
tional provision that "the tenure of all offices
which are not OF shall not be 9th erwise provid
ed for, shall be during the pleasure of the Gov
ernor and Council" and that it was never in
tended that the former, who had only the pow
er to nominate for appointment, shall be able
alone to create vacancy which he has not
the power TO fill without the action of the lat
ter.
