Answer 1

The Cherokee

Step-by-step explanation:

The Cherokee chose to use legal action to resist removal. Their lawsuits, notably Cherokee Nation v. Georgia (1831) and Worcester v. Georgia (1832), reached the U.S. Supreme Court but ultimately provided no relief.

Seminoles tried to resist, which was why the Indian Removal Act was more expensive than planned
