McCulloch v. Maryland, Marbury v. Madison, and Gibbons v. Ogden.
- Marbury v. Madison (1803) — established judicial review, making the Supreme Court the final interpreter of the Constitution.
- McCulloch v. Maryland (1819) — upheld implied federal powers and federal supremacy over states, strengthening the Court’s role in interpreting federal authority.
- Gibbons v. Ogden (1824) — clarified broad federal power under the Commerce Clause and reinforced the Court’s authority in settling federal–state disputes.
(Plessy and Brown occurred long after Marshall’s tenure and were not his rulings.)
