6 März 1819 Jahr - McCulloch v. Maryland

Beschreibung:

Maryland attempted to tax the Second Bank of the United States located in Maryland. Marshall rule that a state could not tax a federal institution because "the power to tax is the power ti destroy," and federal laws are supreme over state laws. In addition, Marshall settled the long-running debate over constitutionally of the national bank. Using a loose interpretation of the Constitution, Marshall ruled that, even though no clause in the Constitution specifically mentions a national bank, the Constitution gave the federal government the implied power to create one.
