Judicial review gives the Supreme Court the power to _____.

History

Wittaler [7]3 years ago
3 0

Correct answer:  A) Review acts of the government and determine if they are constitutional.

More detail:

Judicial review refers to the courts' ability to review any law to see if it violates any existing law or any statute of a state constitution or the US Constitution.  On the federal level, Marbury v. Madison (1803) is considered the landmark case for the Supreme Court asserting its authority of judicial review, to strike down a law as unconstitutional.

It was sort of a roundabout way in which the principle of judicial review was asserted by the Supreme Court in the case of Marbury v. Madison. William Marbury had been appointed Justice of the Peace for the District of Columbia by outgoing president John Adams -- one of a number of such last-minute appointments made by Adams.  When Thomas Jefferson came into office as president, he directed his Secretary of State, James Madison, not to deliver many of the commission papers for appointees such as Marbury.  Marbury petitioned the Supreme Court directly to hear his case, as a provision of the Judiciary Act of 1789 had made possible.  The Court said that particular provision of the Judiciary Act was in conflict with Article III of the Constitution, and so they could not issue a specific ruling in Marbury's case (which they believe he should have won).  Nevertheless, in making their statement about the case, the Court established the principle of judicial review.

Which of these was true about indentured servants in Jamestown?
Colt1911 [192]

The correct answer is B; They had few rights under their contract.

Further Explanation:

Numerous wealthy families had indentured servants in Jamestown. The people who were indentured servants all choose so willingly. Some of the reasons for becoming an indentured servant were;

  • they came to America free
  • free room and board
  • lodging and freedom dues paid for the workers
  • after their service was over they had a freedom package

The freedom packages included many incentives such as;

  • free land, sometimes, up to 25 acres
  • free corn for a year
  • new clothing
  • animals, such as cows or pigs
  • arms/guns

The indentured servants usually worked for an average of 7 years depending on the contract they signed. They were not slaves and were there of their own free will. They did get punished, many times harshly if a rule was broken. The contract could be made longer if a rule was broken, such as the pregnancy of a female servant. Indentured servants were both white and African American. The African Americans had the same contracts as the whites and were treated equally until slavery began and they lost their rights.
