Heimler's History DISCORD Server: discord.gg/heimlershistory

In this video Heimler walks you through Marbury v. Madison which, in addition to being a required Supreme Court case for your AP Government curriculum, is probably the most important case in Supreme Court history.

It was this case, decided by the Marshall Court, that cemented the Court's power of judicial review which is the power to rule on the constitutionality of laws passed by Congress (in addition to other actions of the federal government).

Though it began as a case about William Marbury suing for a judgeship, it became a far larger and farther reaching case about the jurisdiction and power of the highest Court in the land.
