Question

Chief Justice John Marshall’s only impact was in the court case Marbury v. Madison.


True

False

Answer 1

False. While Marbury v. Madison is one of the most significant cases associated with Chief Justice John Marshall and established the principle of judicial review, his impact on the Supreme Court and American law extends far beyond that single case. Marshall helped to strengthen the power of the federal government, shaped the role of the Supreme Court, and set precedents in numerous important cases throughout his tenure as chief justice.
