Question

4.

What was the Supreme Court's ruling on the Indian Removal Act, and how did
Andrew Jackson respond to this ruling?

Answer 1

the courts ruling was in favor of the natives, however pres. andrew jackson ignored it, and allowed the states to further pass legislation against the natives.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pres. Andrew Jackson declined to enforce the Supreme Court’s decision, thus allowing states to enact further legislation damaging to the tribes. The U.S. government began forcing the Cherokee off their land in 1838. In what became known as the Trail of Tears, some 15,000 Cherokee were driven from their land and were marched westward on a grueling journey that caused the deaths of some 4,000 of their people.
