The secretary of state who refused to deliver a judge's appointment was James Madison. This incident occurred in the early 1800s during the case of Marbury v. Madison, where William Marbury's appointment as a justice of the peace was not finalized. The refusal to deliver the commission became a pivotal moment in establishing the principle of judicial review in the United States.
