Answer:

B) Marbury v. Madison.

Step-by-step explanation:

Judicial review refers to a court's legal authority to decide if a statute or administrative rule undermines or violates current law a constitutional amendment, or, basically, the US Constitution.

The case, Marbury v. Madison (1803) was the first time the Supreme Court of United States declared a law unconstitutional and ordered it to be struck down.
