Definition
Executive, that branch of the government which puts the laws into execution, as distinguished from the legislative and judicial branches. The body that deliberates and enacts laws is legislative; the body that judges and applies the laws in particular cases is judicial; and the body that carries the laws into effect, or superintends the enforcement of them, is executive. The executive authority, in all monar-chies, is vested in the sovereign.
