The Supreme Court is the highest court in New South Wales, and its judges also rule on state constitutional issues, thereby exercising a degree of judicial review over legislation.

“’The power of one judge of the superior court is equal to and coordinate with another .’ Michigan Nat’l Bank v. Hanner, 268 N.C. 668, 670, 151 S.E.2d 579, 580 (1960). Accordingly, it is well established in our jurisprudence ‘that no appeal lies from one Superior Court judge to another; that one Superior Court judge may not correct another’s errors of law; and that ordinarily one judge may not modify, overrule, or change the judgment of another Superior Court judge previously made in the same action.’ Calloway v. Ford Motor Co., 281 N.C. 496, 501, 189 S.E.2d 484, 488 (1972).” State v. Woodridge, 357 N.C. 544, 549 (2003).
