I nominate you to be a judge on the Supreme Court!
John Adams
Thomas Jefferson
I will not pay your commission because you are a Federalist judge.
You can't do that I will sue you!
William Marbury
William Marbury
Chief Justice Marshall
What!?
A law repugnant to the constitution is void, courts and other departments, are bound by that instrument.
James Madison
I am choosing Madison to win this case but we, the Supreme court need a say in what constitutional and what is not.
No!
Yay!
Judicial Review was formed, the Supreme Court has more power!!
Now the Supreme Court is the only branch that can say what is Constitutional and what's not. They now have equal power to the other branches thanks to the Marbury v Madison case.
