Best Answer

Most historians believe that the power to declare acts of Congress unconstitutional (Judicial Review) was a power the founding fathers gave to the federal government. However, there were those who felt the Constitution was a compact with the states and the states should have the power to declare laws null and void. It took the case of Marbury v Maryland to establish the power for the federal government.
