Habeas corpus is the answer
When the writers of the Constitution were initially deciding what powers and responsibilities the executive branch—headed by the president—would have, they were heavily influenced by their experience with the British government under King George III. Having seen how the king and other European monarchs tended to abuse their powers, the designers of the Constitution wanted to place strict limits on the power that the president would have. At the same time, they wanted to give the president enough power to conduct foreign policy and to run the federal government efficiently without being hampered by the squabbling of legislators from individual states. In other words, the Framers wanted to design an executive office that would provide effective and coherent leadership but that could never become a tyranny.

Answer:
Judiciary Act 1801
Explanation:
The judiciary act of 1801 which was overturned by the Jeffersonian republicans were part of the politically-motivated attempt made by the federalists in the U.S congress and the administration of John Adams to fill the federal courts with federalists. Federal courts were used as political means to persecute those who criticized the actions of the federalists and a strong political opposition came into place by Thomas Jefferson, and his team helped in passing the Federal Judiciary act of 1801.
The number of Supreme Court judges was reduced from six to five by the act and the act also created six new federal circuit courts in different region of the United States of America.
