Rule of Law?

MA Constitution Article V: All causes of marriage, divorce, and alimony, and all appeals from the judges of probate shall be heard and determined by the governor and council, until the legislature shall, by law, make other provision.

So, the courts have no say in this whole question by the very constitution that they act under. How in the world did they come to the conclusion that they have jurisdiction? How come anyone cares what they say? They are, I think, overstepping their bounds.

Of course, since we let the Surpreme Court do that in the 60s I guess one could make the argument that they thought they could get away with it too.
