Final answer:

Marbury v. Madison resulted in judicial review, establishing the principle that allows the Supreme Court to review and potentially nullify the actions of Congress and the president.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Supreme Court case that resulted in judicial review was Marbury v. Madison. In 1803, Chief Justice John Marshall ruled that Marbury had the right to a legal remedy, but also found that Congress's Judicial Act of 1789, which would have given the Supreme Court the power to grant Marbury a remedy, was unconstitutional.

This established the principle of judicial review, which allows the Supreme Court to review and possibly nullify the actions of Congress and the president.
