In the last discussion I wrote about my childhood home in Grandville, Michigan. I…

The Epochal Case of Marbury vs Madison Most historical and legal scholars describe the Marbury v Madison case as epochal, I agree. In my opinion the Marbury v Madison case is epochal because it was the first time a law was studied to see if it was unconstitutional or constitutional, it also established new responsibilities to the Judiciary branch.
