Question
why did william marbury most likely support the judiciary act of 1789?
it allowed marbury to take his case to the supreme court.
it overruled james madison and confirmed marburys appointment.
it said that james madisons actions were unconstitutional.
it limited the constitutions power to affect marburys case.
The Judiciary Act of 1789 provided a legal avenue for Marbury. It allowed him to take his case to the Supreme Court, which was crucial for him to seek a resolution regarding his appointment. The other options are incorrect. The Court did not immediately overturn Madison and confirm Marbury's appointment (the Court's decision was more about the principle of judicial review). Saying Madison's actions were unconstitutional was part of the Court's reasoning in Marbury v. Madison but not the direct reason for Marbury's support of the Act. And the Act did not limit the Constitution's power; rather, the Court later used the Constitution to establish judicial review.
