    Changed History by Misquoting the Constitution,” Political
    Science and Politics 36:2 (April 2003): 209–14. Rose argues
    that in a key quotation in the case, Marshall intentionally
    left  out a clause of the Constitution that suggests that Con-
    gress did have the power to expand the original jurisdic-
    tion of the Court. Other constitutional scholars reject this
    argument.

  5. Marbury v. Madison, 1 CR. (5 U.S.) 137 (1803).

  6. Revisionist historians, legal scholars, and political scientists
    have challenged the landmark status of Marbury v. Madison.
    For example, Michael Stokes Paulsen’s Michigan Law Review
    article points out that Marbury was not cited in subsequent
    Supreme Court cases as a precedent for judicial review until
    the late nineteenth century. Legal scholars in the early twen-
    tieth century were the fi rst to promote the idea that Marbury
    was a landmark decision. Paulsen also notes that when the
    opinion was delivered in 1803, it was not controversial. Even
    the Jeff ersonian Democrats, who were at odds with Marshall’s
    Federalists, thought that it was a reasonable decision and not
    the institutional power-grab that modern accounts describe.
    Finally, Marshall made a very narrow case for judicial review,
    arguing that the Supreme Court could declare legislation that
    was contrary to the Court’s interpretation of the Constitution
    null and void only if it concerned judicial powers. Revisionists
    argue that what appear to be broad claims of judicial power in
    Marbury (e.g., the Court has the power “to say what the law
    is”) are taken out of the context of a much more narrow claim
    of power. Michael Stokes Paulsen, “Judging Judicial Review:

    bury,” Michigan Law Review 101 (August 2003): 2706–43.

  7. Ware v. Hylton, 3 U.S. 199 (1796).

  8. However, in 2011 the Court struck down any class-action
    claim unless there was “convincing proof of a companywide
    discriminatory pay and promotion policy”—statistical evi-
    dence of pay disparities would not suffi ce (David Savage,
