The power of judicial review was never formally delegated either by the Constitution or an Act of Congress, but arose from British common law practices the US Courts adopted as a matter of course. Chief Justice John Marshall formally claimed the right of judicial review in his opinion for the Marbury v. Madison, (1803) case.
