The process of judicial review was established through the landmark case of Marbury v. Madison in 1803. The Supreme Court declared that it had the authority to interpret the Constitution and determine the constitutionality of laws and government actions. This established the principle that courts have the power to review and strike down legislation or executive actions that conflict with the Constitution.
Judicial review is the prerogative of the Supreme Court of the US. It is their ability to overturn passed laws that they find unconstitutional.
The power of the supreme court to declare a law "unconstitutional" is called Judicial Review. No part of the constitution actually grants this power explicitly to the Supreme Court, but the case of Marbury vs. Madison established this power and has been the accepted precedent for granting the Supreme Court the power of Judicial Review ever since.
