Answer 2

The correct answer is D) Gibbons v. Odgen was a Supre Court case about interstate commerce.

The answer that correctly summarizes the case of Gibbons v. Odgen is: Gibbons v. Odgen was a Supre Court case about interstate commerce.

The case of Gibbons v. Ogden of 1824 established that the states are not allowed to interfere with the authority of Congress to regulate commerce. The states cannot. In 1819, Aaron Ogden lost a suit against Thomas Gibbons. Gibbons operated steamboats without the authorization of the Monopoly that Fulton and Livingston had with the authorization of the state of New York since 1798. Odgen did purchase the rights to operate his steamboats. So Odgen sued Gibbons and Ogden won. But Gibbons appealed and the Supreme Court favored Gibbons and the decision ended with monopolies in navigation.
