Supreme Court 5 - Ex Parte Milligan 1866 Oct 10, 2017

Show notes

This Civil War case explores the idea of civilians facing military tribunals. Milligan was part of a group of Civil War dissenters. They were northern Democrats charged with conspiracy to overthrow the government, lead an insurrection and in general thwart Union efforts in the War. Pres. Lincoln had suspended the writ of habeas corpus and declared martial law in areas with many protesters. Arrested with his co-conspirators, the military court sentenced Milligan to hang. The Supreme Court will set the precedent that civilians cannot be judged in military courts as long as civilian courts are in session.

Supreme Court 4 - Dred Scott V. Sanford 1857 Oct 10, 2017

Show notes

During the "Decade of Crisis" Dred Scott sued for his freedom. Having lived in a free state and territory Scott claimed that he should be granted his freedom. Helped throughout the process by the family of his original owner Peter Blow, Scott had moved through Illinois and the Wisconsin territory, both of which were free. he traveled with his second master's family - the Emersons. Ultimately, Irene Emerson moved to Massachusetts giving Scott to her brother John Sanford. Four years before the Civil War the Supreme Court will rule that Scott is not a citizen of the US and therefore cannot bring suit. The court side stepped the issue.

Supreme Court 3 - Gibbons V Ogden 1824 Oct 10, 2017

Show notes

This case deals with the supremacy issue once again. It is a test to reaffirm the precedent set in 1819 with McCulloch. The issue is whether a license to conduct interstate commerce issued by the Federal Government is superior to that of a State government. Of course, the Federal license will be deemed superior to the State license affirming the 1819 decision.

Supreme Court 2 - McCulloch V. Maryland 1819 Oct 08, 2017

Show notes

This is second in the series of major, or precedent setting decisions. This major case of the Marshall court has to do with Maryland attempting to levy a tax on the 2nd Bank of the United States. The Marshall court will decide that the Federal government is supreme over state governments, and that a state may not tax the Federal government.

Supreme Court 1 - Marbury V. Madison 1803 Oct 08, 2017

Show notes

Considered to be the first major Supreme Court precedent setting decision, William Marbury sues James Madison to obtain a judicial appointment awarded by John Adams. The election of 1800 marked a change in political philosophy as the Federalist era of George Washington and John Adams evolved into the Democratic Republican era of Thomas Jefferson. John Adams wanted to assure continued Federalist influence in the judiciary.
