John Marshall fue un estadista y jurista estadounidense que dio forma al derecho constitucional estadounidense, convirtiendo a la Corte Suprema en un centro de poder. Marshall dominó el Tribunal durante más de tres décadas y desempeñó un papel importante en el desarrollo del sistema legal estadounidense. Notablemente, estableció el derecho a la revisión judicial, el poder de anular leyes que violan la Constitución. Marshall cimentó así la posición del poder judicial como una rama independiente e influyente del gobierno. Además, tomó varias decisiones importantes relacionadas con el federalismo, dando forma al equilibrio de poder entre el gobierno federal y los estados en los primeros años de la república.
