Although most people consider Marbury v. Madison, the US Supreme Court case that first declared an Act of Congress unconstitutional, the first example of judicial review, it is actually just the best known and most clearly defined. Chief Justice John Marshall's opinion has been cited several hundred times since 1803.
The first documented decisions involving judicial review occurred in 1796 the cases Hylton v. United States, 3 US 171 (1796), in which the Supreme Court declared a carriage tax constitutional, and Ware v. Hylton, 3 US 199 (1796), in which the Court determined The Treaty of Paris superseded an otherwise constitutional state law and overturned the law. Both precedents were set under the leadership of the third Chief Justice of the United States, Oliver Ellsworth.
