Age of Jackson Formative Check (Worth 1 Daily Grade)
In 1832, the Supreme Court ruled in Worcester v. Georgia that the Cherokee Nation was a sovereign entity and that Georgia had no jurisdiction over their lands. However, President Jackson famously disregarded this decision, reportedly stating, "John Marshall has made his decision; now let him enforce it." Jackson believed in the supremacy of the executive branch and viewed the Court's decision as a challenge to his authority.
