Answer:

The doctrine of nullification allows a state to invalidate, that is, to void, for its own territory any federal law deemed unconstitutional by that state. Supporters of the doctrine generally view it as a major political tool against tyranny by the central government over the state governments and the people, while to its opponents it is threatening to the stability of the country.

Nullification is a legal theory according to which a state has to nullify the unconstitutional federal laws of the state.The theory of nullification is based on the view that the state that have originated as a result of an agreement have the final authority to determine the limits of the power of the government.The final decisive power lies only with the federal courts.
