The correct answer is A.

The Judiciary Act of 1789 was declared unconstitutional by the US Supreme Court in 1803, and this was a manifestation of the functioning of the System of Checks and Balances and of the principle of judicial review.

Such system was implemented to keep the balance of power between the three branches of the US goverment (legislative, executive and judiciary) and to prevent a situation in which one the branches had gathered enough power as to overrule the other two.

Further Explanation:

The Supreme Court is the apex court in the United States Federal Judiciary having appellate jurisdiction and original jurisdiction. The Composition and power of the United States were ‘determined by Article III’ of the ‘Constitution’ as per “the Judiciary act (1789)”. The Supreme Court in the United States was established on 4th March 1789 at Washington D.C. The Court’s power involves the ‘judicial review’ that can abolish the statues that violate the “provisions of the Constitution” of the United States. The court has the right to invalidate the “Presidential directives” in case of disobedience of constitutional laws.

It meant that  American Courts had the power to put down laws or government actions that go against what it is established in the Constitution.
