The Cherokee were forced to move despite the Supreme Court ruling in their favor due to President Andrew Jackson's refusal to enforce the Court's decision. The ruling in Worcester v. Georgia (1832) affirmed the sovereignty of the Cherokee Nation, but Jackson's administration prioritized land and economic interests over judicial authority. This led to the implementation of the Indian Removal Act, ultimately resulting in the tragic Trail of Tears, where thousands of Cherokees were forcibly displaced.
