Question

What was one of John Marshall’s important accomplishments as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court?

A. establishing the power of judicial review

B. appointing William Marbury a justice

C. ruling state laws to be superior to federal laws

D. allowing federal regulation of interstate commerce

Answer 1

It was most certainly A. In Marbury v. Madison, he establishes judicial review. This gives the courts the power to review laws and/or declare them unconstitutional. This is still important today, as if judicial review was not established, some of the laws that we would be expected to follow would violate the constitution.

Answer 2

A. Eastablishing the power of judicial review.
