The powers of the legislature are defined and limited; and that those limits may not be mistaken, or forgotten, the Constitution is written." Marbury v. Madison (1803) WASHINGTON -- Debates about judicial review concern the propriety and scope of judicial supervision of democracy, and involve the countermajoritarian dilemma: How to square the principle of popular sovereignty with the practice of allowing appointed judges, accountable to no contemporary constituency, to overturn laws enacted by elected legislators?

- A moot court exercise: debating judicial review prior to Marbury v. Madison.
Law students at Litchfield Law School in Connecticut debated the scope of judicial review in their moot court exercises in 1797, years before the historic ruling by US Supreme Court Chief justice John Marshall in Marbury v. Madison. The student advocates were allowed to choose the topic of debate, and history indicates that the question of judicial review had not been addressed by the Supreme Court. Discussions regarding the Pension Act may have been the only exposure they had to the issue because the school's curriculum did not give judicial review much attention. The student judges found against the Court's power to declare unconstitutional laws void.

Okay, so a spat between two Maine homeowners over an ocean view isn't exactly the stuff of Marbury v. Madison, but who isn't amused when an adult displays the maturity of a preschooler fighting over a Tickle Me Elmo? In 2002, Edgar Peters purchased a parcel of land in Ogunquit that abuts and is uphill from oceanfront property owned by Richard O'Leary. O'Leary has owned his property since 1988. Peters' property is subject to an easement ensuring driveway access to the O'Leary property. It is also subject to a deed restriction that prohibits the erection of structures within ten feet of the 125-foot-long boundary with the O'Leary property.
