Why should Chief Justice John Marshall have removed himself from the Marbury v. Madison case?
Marbury v. Madison, 5 US 137 (1803)Chief Justice Marshall should have recused himself for conflict-of-interest because he was President Adams' Secretary of State, and responsible for recording and sealing Marbury's appointment, and for arranging delivery of the justice of the peace commissions withheld by the new Jefferson administration, and being contested in Marbury v. Madison.For more information, see Related Questions, below.
Was marbury satisfied with the decision?
Probably, given Marbury's case may have been politically motivated, rather than driven by a real desire to serve as justice of the peace. This idea is supported by the fact that Marshall clearly explained Marbury's suit could be addressed by the courts, but had to be refiled in the lower courts. Since Marbury never refiled, it appears Marshall's public scolding of President Jefferson, combined with the decision's reinforcement of the Federalist-dominated Judicial branch, was satisfying enough.It's not clear how actively Marbury (or his fellow plaintiffs) would have performed the duties of justice of the peace had the commissions been delivered, because Marbury was already a weathy man with numerous business interests.The official citation of the case is Marbury v. Madison,5 US 137 (1803)
