Georgia began the removal process of the Cherokee and other members of the Five Civilized Tribes through a series of legal and political maneuvers, notably the passage of the Indian Removal Act in 1830, which facilitated the forced relocation of Native American tribes. The state enacted laws to assert control over Cherokee lands, such as the 1830 "Indian Territory" law, which aimed to undermine Cherokee sovereignty and encourage settlers to occupy their lands. This culminated in the infamous Trail of Tears, where thousands of Cherokee were forcibly removed from their ancestral lands, leading to significant suffering and loss of life.
The Five Civilized Tribes, which include the Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Creek, and Seminole nations, were fully removed from their ancestral lands primarily during the 1830s, with the Indian Removal Act of 1830 facilitating this process. The most notorious event was the Trail of Tears, which occurred between 1838 and 1839, particularly affecting the Cherokee Nation. By the mid-1840s, most members of these tribes had been forcibly relocated to designated Indian Territory, present-day Oklahoma.
The case of Cherokee Nation v. Georgia, (1831), involved a question of Supreme Court jurisdiction after the state of Georgia enacted a series of laws in 1828 that stripped Native Americans of their rights, in order to annex their land and force the Cherokee to leave the state.Fearing Georgia had the support of President Jackson, John Ross, Chief of the Cherokee Nation, led a delegation to Washington to plead for relief directly from Congress, bypassing the usual process of negotiating directly with the President. Although Ross found support in Congress, it was insufficient to overturn Georgia law.Ross then appealed directly to the US Supreme Court for an injunction against Georgia's laws. The Court determined it didn't have original jurisdiction over the matter because the Cherokee Nation was not a state but a "denominated domestic dependent nation." The injunction was denied, but the Court indicated it would be willing to review the matter on appeal from the lower courts.Case Citation:Cherokee Nation v. Georgia, 30 U.S. 1 (1831)
There is no process for emancipation in Georgia.
In Worcester v. Georgia, (1832) Marshall expressed the opinion that the Cherokee was a sovereign nation and only the federal government had the right to regulate them. Further, the Cherokee had no obligation to follow Georgia law within their own territory. Marshall also informed Georgia that it had no right to make laws governing the use of Cherokee land.Unfortunately, Marshall's admonition fell on deaf ears. Congress, under the Jackson administration, had already passed The Indian Removal Act of 1830, a planned relocation of Native American nations like the Creek, Choctaw, Seminole, Chickasaw and Cherokee from their ancestral homes to less desirable property west of the Mississippi River. By the time the Worcester decision was rendered, the Choctaw had already been removed, and the Seminole were in the process of resettlement.In 1838, a mere six years after the Supreme Court's landmark decision, the Cherokee were forced to walk over 1,000 miles from their homeland to government land in what is now Oklahoma. This travesty of justice caused hundreds of Cherokee to die of disease, exposure and starvation, and became known as the "Trail of Tears."Case Citation:Worcester v. Georgia, 31 US 515 (1832)
None. The Supreme Court never ruled on the subject of the Cherokee's removal because the Court held it lacked original (trial) jurisdiction over the case. John Ross would have had to refile his case (Cherokee Nation v. Georgia, (1831)) in a District Court, then petition the Supreme Court to hear it on appeal. This never happened. Everything Chief Justice John Marshall wrote about the federal government's obligation to the Cherokee was personal opinion, not part of a legally binding decision.In Worcester v. Georgia, (1832), the US Supreme Court ruled Georgia laws (and by extension similar laws in others states) regulating the Cherokee and use of their territory was inapplicable because the Cherokee Nation was not a state but a "denominated domestic dependent nation." As such, only the Federal government had the right to negotiate with the Native Americans; Georgia could not force them off their land. The Marshall Court also expressed the opinion that the federal government owed a duty of protection to the Native Americans from Georgia's aggression. Unfortunately, the United States was not party to the suit. Although Marshall charged Jackson with a moral obligation, his literal opinion with regard to the United States' obligations toward a domestic dependent did not carry the weight of law.This case is often confused with the earlier Cherokee Nation v. Georgia, (1831), in which the Cherokee fought to retain their land rights after Georgia enacted a series of laws that stripped Native Americans of their rights, in order to annex their land and force the Cherokee to leave the state (1828).Fearing Georgia had the support of President Jackson, John Ross, Chief of the Cherokee Nation, led a delegation to Washington to plead for relief directly from Congress, bypassing the usual process of negotiating directly with the President. Although Ross found support in Congress, it was insufficient to overturn Georgia law.Ross then appealed directly to the US Supreme Court for an injunction against Georgia's laws. The Court determined it didn't have original jurisdiction over the matter because of the Cherokee Nation's status not being that of another state. The injunction was denied, but the Court indicated it would be willing to review the matter on appeal from the lower courts.While President Jackson supported the move, and thwarted the Court by appointing like-minded justices to dilute Marshall's influence, the sad conclusion to this story occurred after Jackson left office. In 1836, Congress negotiated a removal treaty with the Cherokee Nation, the Treaty of New Echota. This resulted in the forcible removal of the Native Americans from their land by the U.S. Army under the Van Buren administration in 1838, a travesty later known as The Trail of Tears.For more information, see Related Questions, below.

New process 231 transfer case
The Cherokee Nation's repeated appeals to the U.S. government did initially slow down the process of land theft, as they sought legal recognition and protection of their rights. However, despite their efforts, including court cases such as Worcester v. Georgia, the U.S. government ultimately prioritized westward expansion and violated treaties, leading to the forced removal of the Cherokee during the Trail of Tears. While their appeals brought attention to their plight, they were ultimately insufficient to prevent the loss of their ancestral lands.
