10 Jefferson MIDNIGHT JUDGES: On his last day in office, President Adams appointed a large number of Federalist judges to the federal courts in an effort to maintain Federalist control of the government. These newly-appointed Federalist judges were called midnight judges because John Adams had stayed up until midnight signing the appointments.

11 Jefferson MARBURY V. MADISON: 1803 - The case arose out of Jefferson's refusal to deliver the commissions to the judges appointed by Adams' Midnight Appointments.
