About Supreme Court
The Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) is the highest court in the federal judiciary of the United States. It has ultimate appellate jurisdiction over all U.S. federal court cases, and over state court cases that turn on questions of U.S. constitutional or federal law. It also has original jurisdiction over a narrow range of cases, specifically "all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party". In 1803, the court asserted itself the power of judicial review, the ability to invalidate a statute for violating a provision of the Constitution. It is also able to strike down presidential directives for violating either the Constitution or statutory law.

They were used for good dolls during Brown v. the Board of Education when civil rights legislation was overturned in 1954. It was one of the first cases where a Supreme Court cited a social study in its reasons for making a certain decision. This was when America agreed that segregation was a negative thing and had a negative effect on the people who were subject to it.

It's called The History of Blood and would definitely recommend reading it. Just on weird lawsuits. Yeah. I didn't know about this lawsuit in the 19th century. In 1893, where the Supreme Court got involved in whether tomato was a fruit or a vegetable. Why did they do this? The ruling is actually in. It was a lawsuit that was brought by the Knicks family. They were big sellers of tomatoes.
