Introduction

This project serves to outline the expanded responsibility of the Judicial Branch of Government by the establishment of Judicial Review. Also, it will outline the power  of the Federal Government's expansion over that of the states. We will document the individual impact of such cases as Marbury v. Madison (1803), Fletcher v. Peck (1810), McCulloch v. Maryland (1819), Cohens v. Virginia (1821),  Johnson v. McIntosh (1823), Gibbons v. Ogden (1824), and Worcester v. Georgia (1832). Each aforementioned case has a specific impact on the rights and responsibility of the Judicial Branch, and the Federal Government, as a whole.
