2. Why would President Adams appoint people who are members of his own political party?
3. Why do you think Thomas Jefferson did not want the Adams’ appointees to get their jobs?
4. Why did William Marbury sue James Madison?
5. Knowing about Chief Justice John Marshall’s original role as Secretary of State, who is he likely to side with, Marbury or Madison? Why?
6. Who won the case?
7. What is Judicial Review?
8. How do you think Jefferson felt about Marshall’s decision?
Explain why? (This is your opinion)
Criticism Initially one would think that Jefferson and Madison would have appreciated Marshall’s decision. Jefferson got what he wanted, to block the delivery of Adams’ judicial appointments. Jefferson would get to appoint his own judges. However Jefferson wrote this about the decision:
"The Constitution . . . meant that its coordinate branches should be checks on each other. But the opinion which gives to the judges the right to decide what laws are constitutional and what not, not only for themselves in their own sphere of action but for the Legislature and
Executive also in their spheres, would make the Judiciary a despotic (dictatorial and
oppressive) branch."
—Thomas Jefferson to Abigail Adams, 1804. ME 11:51
