John Marshall, the fourth Chief Justice of the United States, is known for several landmark decisions that shaped American constitutional law. Notable cases include Marbury v. Madison (1803), which established the principle of judicial review, affirming the Supreme Court's authority to invalidate laws conflicting with the Constitution. In McCulloch v. Maryland (1819), he upheld the federal government's implied powers and reinforced the supremacy of federal law over state law. Additionally, in Gibbons v. Ogden (1824), Marshall expanded the federal government's power to regulate interstate commerce, solidifying the role of the federal government in economic affairs.
