Jefferson Response to John Adams appointed many Federalist judges before leaving office, the so-called "midnight judges."

Thomas Jefferson and the other republicans tried to revoke the "Judiciary Act of 1801" and remove the Federalists who were newly appointed.

Explanation:

Thomas Jefferson and John Adams have a very complicated relationship in American History. The big argument they had was on the amount of power that was to be given to the "federal judiciary."

Jefferson led the Republicans while Adams led the Federalists. Before John Adams stepped down as a president, he tried to appoint new judges at midnight. Thus, the term "midnight judges." This was done prior to Thomas Jefferson's inauguration as the next American president and it was actually successful in reorganizing the court system of the nation. It also allowed the Federalists to maintain their power.

As soon as Jefferson became president, he immediately revoked the Judiciary Act of 1801. Nevertheless, it was hard to remove the midnight judges. When the Federalists complained that it was unconstitutional and that the Supreme Court would side with them, the Republicans abolished the Supreme Court's term in 1802.
