Cooper v. Aaron, 358 U.S. 1 (1958), was an assertion by the Warren Court that the federal judiciary and the U.S. Supreme Court was "supreme in the exposition of the law of the Constitution." This was a raw power grab by the Supreme Court of authority over the other two branches of government, as well as unnecessary to the resolution of the dispute in that case.
