if the supreme court declares a law unconstitutional they are exercising what principle?
dual sovereignty
the u.s. supreme court decides "cases and controversies"—matters pertaining to the federal government, disputes between states, and interpretation of the united states constitution, and, in general, can declare legislation or executive action made at any level of the government as unconstitutional, nullifying the law and creating precedent for future law and decisions. the united states constitution does not specifically mention the power of judicial review (the power to declare a law unconstitutional). the power of judicial review was asserted by chief justice marshall in the landmark supreme court case "marbury v. madison" (1803). there have been instances in the past where such declarations have been ignored by the other two branches. below the u.s. supreme court are the united states courts of appeals, and below them in turn are the united states district courts, which are the general trial courts for federal law, and for certain controversies between litigants who are not deemed citizens of the same state ("diversity jurisdiction").
