Unknown Story

As John Adam's term as President is about to end, he appoints William Marbury as Justice of Peace.
I'm going to elect you as a Justice of Peace
As soon as Thomas Jefferson is elected into office after defeating John Adams, he orders his Secretary of State, James Madison, to hold off Marbury's commission or paycheck.
Hold Marbury's commission.
Yes sir!
The newly appointed Justice of Peace, William Marbury, was furious at James Madison for holding off his pay. In order to solve this problem, Marbury brought Madison all the way up to the Supreme Court because of his hateful action
Why on earth would you hold off my pay. I'm bringing you to court!
William Marbury enables the Judiciary Act of 1789 so he can issue a Writ of Mandamus to claim Madison's action illegal.
According to the Judiciary Act of 1789, you can issue me a Writ of Mandamus
John Marshall, who was the judge presiding over the case, claimed that his request of issuing a Writ of Mandamus would be unconstitutional due to Section 13 of the Judiciary Act being inconsistent and invalid.
We sadly can't accept your request to issue a Writ of Mandamus because it would be unconstitutional.
The Marbury V Madison Case would soon become significant moment of U.S history being that this was the first case to begin practice of Judicial Review.
