Question

Which case allowed the supreme court to claim the power of judicial review (the authority to declare a law unconstitutional)?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is C. The case that allowed the Supreme Court to claim the power of judicial review was Marbury v. Madison.

Explanation:

Marbury v. Madison is a 1803 judgment of the United States Supreme Court, which established the principle of the judicial review. The reason for the case concerns the disputed appointment of Mr. Marbury as a judge, in the turbulent transition period between President Adams and President Jefferson. With a clever judgment, the Supreme Court, chaired by John Marshall, managed to keep both parties satisfied, but above all to secure its own power of review in a judgment that has gone down in history as one of the cornerstones of constitutional law in the United States.
