Answer: In , 1831 the Supreme Court was in favour of the Cherokee people as it did not grant that Georgia take away the Cherokee lands.

Step-by-step explanation: The Cherokee people were Georgian settlers and from time occupied the Georgian lands from 1802 to 1828 through several treatise but in 1931, the Georgian legislative asked the Supreme Court to remove the Cherokee people from the rights to the land and wanted to impose its laws on the Native Americans and their territory but the Supreme court did not grant them their wish as it did not allow for Georgia to take away the Cherokee lands.
