Judicial review--the job of the Supreme Court to review and interpret law established in 1803.

Marbury v. Madison (1803) set the judicial review part of the Supreme Court's job. They stated in the decision they had the right to review legislation. 

Answer:

Check and balances

Explanation:

The system of check and balances was established to prevent each branch of government to have too much power.

The U.S. Constitution divides the governmental power into three branches: legislative, executive and judicial. It establishes various limits and restrictions on each branch.

The power of each branch can be checked by powers given to the two other branches.

The Supreme Court can declare laws unconstitutional, this process is called judicial review and is one example of the check and balances system.
