• Jefferson became president, didnt give Marbury
  his commission to be a judge
• Marbury sued Madison for his commission to be a
  judge, after Jefferson told Madison not to give
  it to Marbury
• If Marshall (chief justice) refused to issue a
  mandamus, Marbury could say he was afraid to
  stand up to Jefferson, and the power of court
  would suffer
• By right, Marbury should have commission, however
  Marshall says this clause was unconstitutional,
  and Supreme Court couldnt issue writs of
  mandamus
