Marbury petitioned the Supreme Court to force the new Secretary of State, James Madison, to deliver the documents. The Court, with John Marshall as Chief Justice, found firstly that Madison's refusal to deliver the commission was both illegal and correctible. Nonetheless, the Court stopped short of ordering Madison (by writ of mandamus) to hand over Marbury's commission, instead holding that the provision of the Judiciary Act of 1789 that enabled Marbury to bring his claim to the Supreme Court was itself unconstitutional, since it purported to extend the Court's original jurisdiction beyond that which Article III established. The petition was therefore denied.
I'm not sure if that helped, but good luck :)
On the morning of January 30, 1968 just as people were preparing for the lunar new year, 13 cities in Central South Vietnam were attacked by the Viet Cong forces. Twenty four hours later, cities, towns, government buildings, U.S. and Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN) military bases throughout South Vietnam were also hit in a total of over 120 attacks. In Saigon, a platoon of Viet Congs were able to enter the U.S. embassy's courtyard before it was crushed. The Viet Cong forces were daring and the attacks were well planned and it also showed that the Viet Congs could not be trusted. For several years during the Vietnam war, there was always an informal truce between North Vietnam and South Vietnam during the lunar new year, Tet being the most important date in the Vietnamese calendar.
