“Despite Chief Justice Marshall’s legacy as one of the nation’s most significant US Supreme Court justices, the newly discovered research regarding his role as a slave trade, slave owner of hundreds of slaves, pro-slavery jurisprudence and racist views render him a highly inappropriate namesake for the law school,” the statement read, in part. Marshall served as the fourth Chief Justice of the Supreme Court from 1801 to 1835, remaining the longest-serving chief justice in the court’s history. He also served as Secretary of State under President John Adams. The most famous opinion involving Marshall came in 1803’s landmark Marbury v. Madison case, which set the precedent for judicial review by the Supreme Court.
