CASE BRIEF: Marbury v. Madison

from Gavel and Gossip · host Leslie and Kristan

Welcome to Case Brief, our new segment where we unpack the famous, fascinating, confusing, and downright strange judicial opinions—without the law school headache.This week, we’re rewinding to the Hamilton era with Marbury v. Madison, 5 U.S. 137 (1803)—the 1803 showdown that gave courts the power to strike down unconstitutional laws and cemented the Constitution as the supreme law of the land. We’re breaking down the history, the politics, and the drama at the heart of the case (and the second act of Hamilton)! Join us as we discuss political intrigue, historic shade, and the birth of judicial review—all sparked by a little chaos between John Adams and Thomas Jefferson.
