B. The Supreme Court should judge whether the law or the Constitution ought to determine a case
C. The Supreme Court should judge whether a law is constitutional
D. The Supreme Court should judge ordinary acts as equal to the Constitution



Answer :

The statement that best summarizes Marshall’s argument is that the Supreme Court should judge whether a law is constitutional (Option C).

In 1803, in a legal case of Marbury vs Madison, the US Supreme Court first declared an act of Congress as unconstitutional, thus establishing the doctrine of judicial review. The court’s opinion written by Chief Justice John Marshall stated that the Supreme Court should judge whether a law is constitutional. Marshall is considered the among the foundations of US constitutional law. The case strengthened the federal judiciary by establishing for it the power of judicial review by which federal courts could declare legislature, executive, and administrative actions inconsistent with US constitution or unconstitutional and therefore null and void.
