McCulloch vs Maryland
McCulloch v. Maryland prevented states from taxing the federal government. The state of Maryland was trying to impose a tax on all bank notes of banks not chartered in Maryland. At the time, the only bank of this sort in Maryland was the Second Bank of the United States.
It expanded the power of the Federal level of government.
The case of McCulloch v. Maryland was over an issue of states' rights vs the rights of government. The state of Maryland wanted to tax the federal bank because they believed it was unconstitutional. However, the verdict of the case imposed the "necessary and proper" clause which gave the federal government power to make laws which weren't specified in the Constitution, but generally thought of as needed and lawful.
The boundary lines between states' rights and the rights of the federal government to pass laws governing the states were made clearer by McCulloch vs. Maryland.
