Geоrgiа's stаte gоvernment clаimed jurisdictiоn over the entire Cherokee territory and annexed (took control of) their land. The Cherokee Nation took its case to the United States Supreme Court. In the first of two rulings, Chief Justice John Marshall denied the Cherokee legal standing as U.S. citizens. However, in Worcester v. Georgia (1832), Marshall held that Georgia could not extend its law over the sovereign (self-governing) lands of the Cherokee nation, and it had no authority to displace the indigenous people. "The Acts of Georgia are repugnant (disgusting) to the Constitution, laws, and treaties of the United States....The Cherokee nation...is a distinct community, occupying its own territory... in which the laws of Georgia can have no force, and which the citizens of Georgia have no right to enter, but with the assent of the Cherokees themselves, or in conformity with treaties, and with the acts of Congress...."The Cherokee had won a major legal victory, but it proved to be a hollow one, for in 1828. In May of 1830, President Andrew Jackson pushed the Indian Removal Act through Congress. This law authorized the president to choose lands west of the Mississippi for tribal use and to negotiate treaties. Jackson supported Georgia's aggressive actions toward the Cherokee and had no intention of interfering to protect the nation, even after the Worcester ruling. The president reportedly uttered defiant words "John Marshall has made his decision; now let him enforce it." QUESTIONS: 1.
