Question

If the Supreme Court finds that a state law is unconstitutional, it may _______.

Answer 1

Answer:

Nullify the law. For if it were unconstitutional, it would basically act like an "impeachment" to said law.

Answer 2

The correct answer is D. Nullify the law

Explanation:

Nullification or invalidation of law is possible in the U.S. and other countries if the Supreme Court or similar entity determines a law is against the Constitution. This is because in countries like the U.S., the constitution is considered to be the supreme law, and therefore this should be considered superior to state laws. Indeed, during U.S. history, there have been many cases of nullification as some laws, for example, those that promoted segregation were found to be unconstitutional, and therefore they were nullified. Thus, if the Supreme Court finds that a state law is unconstitutional, it may nullify the law.
