Answer:

The Supreme court ruled that it only applied to the federal government

Explanation:

The Bill of Rights had a minimal judicial impact, since in 1833 the Supreme court ruled that it only applied to the federal government. The Fourteenth Amendment was adopted in 1868, this started the process known as incorporation. Whereby most of the amendments of the Bill of Rights were subsequently applied to the government of each state.

The Bill of Rights had less influence in the 19th century because the Supreme Court ruled that it only applied to the Federal government.

In the case of Barron v. Baltimore (1833), the Supreme Court ruled that the federal government had no say over how the extent to which states could apply the Bill of Rights.

For this reason, Americans were not able to fully exercise their rights according to the Constitution.

This eventually changed when:

  • the 14th Amendment was ratified
  • the Supreme Court ruled that the Bill of Rights is applicable to all states.

In conclusion, the Bill of Rights was not fully enforced because the federal government was limited in being able to enforce it. This changed with the 14th Amendment and subsequent Supreme Court rulings.
