It was that a law that negates all property rights established under an earlier law is unconstitutional by grounds of Article I, Section 10 in the Constitution which basically says "No law shall... pass any law impairing the obligation of contracts."
The term "peck" doesn't have a specific number attatche to it. It means "a lot" or "many" or "a large number or amount".

well actually the saying is if Peter picked a peck of pickled peppers, where is the peck of peppers that Peter picked? A Peck for those not knowing is half a bushell. The answer for Peter's question is are we sure it wasn't Peter that was pickled when he went to the pepper patch? Why would peppers be growing pre-pickled?
Peter Piper didn't pick any pecks of pickled peppers because pickled peppers aren't pickled when they are picked. So Peter Piper picked zero pecks of pickled peppers. However assuming that he was able to pick at least one peck of pickled peppers (it never said he got them from a garden) it would be determined by the formula: (p)(t) where p is the number of pecks of pickled peppers pickable in a period of time (an hour) and t is the time that he spent picking the perfect pickled peppers that peter piper picked. let us, for arguments sake, assume that he picks 2 pecks of pickled peppers in an hour. let us also assume that he spent 5 hours picking his perfect pickled peppers. therefore by these calculations, he pick 10 pecks of pickled peppers but it could vary depending on the skill of peter piper at picking pickled peppers. and so peter piper picked at least 10 pecks of pickled peppers.

fletcher v. peck
No, Fletcher v. Peck was not a decision of strict construction. The case involved a land dispute and the Supreme Court's ruling upheld the sanctity of contracts, emphasizing the importance of property rights and the rule of law.
The case was based on a corrupt land sale. John Peck bought the land originally and later sold some to Robert Fletcher with Peck having full knowledge that the sale of the land would be void under the current (1795) Georgia Law. This law was void and illegal based on the Contract Clause in the constitution that prevents any state from making and passing laws that would impair the obligations of contracts. The courts ruling was in Fletcher favor as the law was deemed unconstitutional
The case was important because it was the first time the US Supreme Court found a state law unconstitutional. This case was in 1810.
Let the court regard only to one state, and States cannot nullify private contracts.
In the 1810 decision of the Marshall Court, Fletcher v. Peck, the Supreme Court ruled that a state law was unconstitutional. This established the Supreme Court's right to act in matters that concerned one state alone, and not one state versus another state or states.
The case Marbury vs. Madison in 1803 made this possible with the establishment of judicial review by Chief Justice John Marshall.
The address of the Prairie-River District - Peck is: 217 N Main St, Peck, 83545 0112
The court case Fletcher vs Peck was significant because it was the first court decision ruling a state law unconstitutional. The case related to the selling of lands purchased from natives without land titles.
