What was Thomas Jefferson's reaction to John Marshall's decision in the Marbury v. Madison case?
Marbury v. Madison, 5 US 137 (1803)
Marshall's decision in Marbury v. Madison, (1803) infuriated President Jefferson, in part because Marshall delivered the President a long, humiliating lecture; but in larger part because Marshall cleverly constructed his ruling to appear favorable to Jefferson by openly establishing the Court's right of judicial review.
Jefferson strongly opposed judicial review, believing it gave the Court too much power, which the President was certain would be abused.
Jefferson's mistake was ignoring the Court and brushing off Marbury's case as too unimportant to bother with. In fact, he never sent an attorney to represent the government's interests before the Court. This error in judgment made Jefferson appear to agree with Marshall that the purpose of the Judicial branch (more specifically the Supreme Court) was to interpret the Constitution and ensure laws adhered to its principles. Jefferson became an accomplice in strengthening the power of the Judicial branch, a role he would never have accepted willingly.
