Elevated the supreme court to a higher status balancing the powers of the other branches?

Answer 1

The Judicial Review elevated the Supreme Court to a higher status, balancing the powers of the other branches. Judicial review is an example of check and balances in a modern governmental system.

Answer 2

The case Marbury vs Madison established the precedent for judicial review. It is the basis on which the final word on whether a law is "Constitutional" rests. With this power, the Legislature can pass a law and Executive sign it but the Court can strike it down as "Unconstitutional" or superseded by other existing laws - thus holding the Legislature and Executive branch in check. It also established the precedent for the Supreme Court to be the final arbiter in ruling on the interpretation of the law if the Executive Branch and the Legislative Branch disagree. This power establishes the Judicial Branch as equally powerful in its own sphere compared to the Legislature and Executive.
