John Marshall (September 24, 1755 – July 6, 1835) was the fourth Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States (1801–1835). His court opinions helped lay the basis for United States constitutional law and many say made the Supreme Court of the United States a coequal branch of government along with the legislative and executive branches. Previously, Marshall had been a leader of the Federalist Party in Virginia and served in the United States House of Representatives from 1799 to 1800. He was Secretary of State under President John Adams from 1800 to 1801.

The other options of the question were A) Taxing the states. B) overturning the Treaty of Paris. D) writing the supremacy clause.

When we hear the name of Chief Justice John Marshall (155-1835), we always identify hin as one of the "pillars" of the judicial system in the United States. Indeed, he was. In 1801, he was appointed chief justice of the Supreme Court, where he established the role of the maximum court of the nation. He established the basis of the judicial review in the case of Marbury v. Madison of 1803.
