President Andrew Jackson is the correct answer.

Worcester v. Georgia was a legal case that established that the States were NOT allowed to impose their regulations on Native American territory. President Andrew Jackson did not like the U.S Supreme Court decision and refused to enforce the court decision which kept Worcester (a Cherokee missionary who disobeyed Georgia's law) and other missonaries in prison, forced the Cherokees off of their land and resulted in a bloody conflict that killed over 4,000 people.
