Answer:
D
Explanation:
Marbury v. Madison was a court case that resided with William Marbury being appointed by John Adams, but during the process of his commission, Thomas Jefferson became president, and he and Secretary of State James Madison, added new courts and new judges. William Marbury's commission was not delivered to him, therefore petitioning to the Supreme Court for a writ of mandamus compelling the delivery of his commission.
The Court found Madison's refusal to deliver commissions was illegal but did not grant Marbury a writ of mandamus. Instead, the court held that Marbury did not have the right, under the Judiciary Act of 1789, to claim to the Supreme Court that Madison's act was unconstitutional.
The court knew that a writ of mandamus would be the proper way to fix the situation, but concluded that the court couldn't issue it. Therefore making it clear that Congress did not have the power to modify the Constitution through regular legislation.
Doing this, the Supreme Court established the principle in judicial review and expanded the powers by having the power to declare a law unconstitutional.
Hope that helps your question.
