Answer:

Judicial Restraint

Explanation:

When a judge limits the use of his/her power he/she is exhibiting judicial restraint, which is a concept that encourages judges to limit their power whenever he/she is doubtful on whether a law is constitutional or unconstitutional and to base his/her decision based on "stare decisis" (previous decisions). This concept interprets the idea that an individual should not base his/her own decisions based on his/her own interpretation of the law and the Constitution, and since it is not a judge's duty to create laws, the safest decision on whether it should be considered constitutional is to stick to a decision made in the past.
