Marbury v. Madison 1803 Background : Midnight judges, appointed by John Adams did not receive their appointments. Marbury petitioned the Supreme Court to order Madison to deliver the documents. Court Decision: Chief Justice Marshall states that the appointments can be blocked based on the premise that the Judiciary Act of 1789 was unconstitutional. The Court established its power to interpret the Constitution = Judicial Review

McCulloch v. Maryland 1819 Background: In an attempt to interfere with the operations of the Bank of the United States, Maryland passed a tax on the bank. Court Decision: The power to tax is the power to destroy! Establishes national supremacy and implied powers. Permitted the use of the elastic clause (Necessary-and- proper clause - I;8;8) and denied the ability of states to tax federal institutions.

Gibbons v. Ogden 1824 Background: WARNING! This one is ugly….. Ogden obtained an exclusive license to run a steamship line within NY, Gibbons obtained a license from Congress to run a steamship from New Jersey to New York. Ogden petitioned the court to stop Gibbons ships. Court Decision: The court finds that the NY law was unconstitutional because Commerce Clause (I;8;3) give Congress the power to regulate interstate trade. Finding actually expands the power of the Commerce Clause.

Roe v. Wade 1973 Norma McCorvey (a.k.a. Jane Roe) had attempted to receive an abortion in Texas, a state that only allowed abortions in the cases of incest and rape. The baby was born before the case was heard in the Supreme Court. Using the 9th and 14th Amendments to justify a woman’s right to privacy, the Supreme Court set up the guidelines in which the state can regulate abortions. 1.States may not interfere with abortion in the 1st trimester 2.States may regulate to protect the health of the mother in the 2nd trimester 3.State may regulate to protect the health of the child in the 3rd trimester. *

US 1919 Charles Schenck, the Secretary of the Socialist Party of America, was charged and convicted under the Espionage Act of 1917 for printing and distributing pamphlets suggesting army draftees stand up against the army.
