Question 24 • DRHS GA-GSE US History A
Marbury v. Madison (1803) established the principle of judicial review: the Supreme Court can declare laws passed by Congress unconstitutional. This made the Court an important check on Congress, so choice C is correct. The case did not give the Court unlimited power to issue orders to cabinet members; the Court ruled that the law granting it authority to issue a writ in that case was unconstitutional.
