What would've happened without the Marbury vs Madison case?
There probably would have been a series of court cases over what branch of government has the right of judicial review. Many historians believe the "Founding Fathers" had intended for the federal courts to have the power of judicial review. But even after the Marbury decision, many who supported the theory of "states' rights" continued to argue that the states rightly had that power according to their interpretation of the Constitution. It took a Civil War to uphold once and for all time, the supremacy of the Federal government including its power of judicial review.
