Answer:

correct option is B Barron v. Baltimore

Step-by-step explanation:

that bill was did not apply to state government

court decision is written by the Chief Justice John Marshall

that is protection were instead provided by constitutions of each state

and

Court asserts that Constitution was created by people of the United States

so
