Marbury v. Madison (1803)
In 1803, the United States Supreme Court decided the landmark case of Marbury v. Madison marking the establishment of judicial review. As one of his final Presidential acts, John Adams appointed William Marbury as a Justice of the Peace in Washington, DC. However, Marbury’s commission to the post was not delivered to him during Adams’ term. Thomas Jefferson, the newly elected President directed his Secretary of State, James Madison to withhold delivery. In late 1801, Marbury petitioned the Court for a writ of mandamus to compel Madison to deliver the commission. The Court, under Chief Justice John Marshall, examined the case in 1803.
Thus, the stage was set for the Court to not only decide Marbury’s request, but whether it could constitutionally exercise the power to issue the remedy he sought. Marshall's opinion marked the establishment of judicial review.
