McCulloch v. Maryland: Chief Justice Marshall
The case was initially filed in the County Court of Baltimore, Maryland.Case Citation:McCulloch v. Maryland, 17 US 316 (1819)
In McCulloch v. Maryland, James McCulloch's rights were violated when the state of Maryland imposed a tax on the Second Bank of the United States, which he managed. This tax was seen as an attempt to undermine federal authority and interfere with the operations of a federal institution. McCulloch argued that the state could not tax the national bank, as it would violate the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution, which establishes that federal law takes precedence over state law. Ultimately, the Supreme Court upheld McCulloch's position, reinforcing the principle of federal supremacy.
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.
