1 Jan 1824 Jahr - Gibbons v. Ogden

Beschreibung:

Gibbons had the right to operate on the Hudson River with his federal license thus stopping the monopoly that Ogden had.
Causes: Ogden, with the right of Robert Livingston and Robert Fulton, operated a near monopoly on the Hudson River in New York. However, Gibbons operated on the Hudson River between New York and New Jersey on a federal license. This caused competition and Ogden tried to stop it.
Historical Impact: The Supreme Court stated that Congress had absolute power when it came to regulating commerce within states, foreign nations, and Indian Tribes. This case gave the federal government more power over the states.
