Answer: State Law vs Federal Law

For a very brief explanation, federally the "grass" is illegal. But in some states, it's legal for either recreational and medical use. According to Cornell law, "Federalism is a system of government in which the same territory is controlled by two levels of government. Generally, an overarching national government is responsible for broader governance of larger territorial areas, while the smaller subdivisions, states, and cities govern the issues of local concern." In the case of the "grass" the federal government has the broad rule of outlawing it, but the federal government makes no effort to enforce the federal rule, as the DOJ would not take up the case of simple possession. So it's left up to the states.

Answer:

Cherokee Nation v. Georgia.

Explanation:

The 1831 Supreme Court case of the Cherokee Nation v. Georgia was a court ruling between the Cherokee Nation, the petitioners, against the state of Georgia, the respondent.

In this court case, the Cherokees filed a complaint against the State of Georgia, asking if the state has any jurisdiction to impose laws on the Nation. This was because the state has promised Cherokee lands to Georgian settlers if they settle in the state. The court decided that since the Cherokees are a dependent nation, it cannot make any decision as it has no jurisdiction over the case. Thus, this means that the Cherokee Nation cannot have any legal recourse to stop the state from taking their lands. This case was then followed up by the 1832 Worcester v. Georgia ruling where the court ruled in favor of the Cherokee people.

Thus, the correct answer is Cherokee Nation v. Georgia.
