To paraphrase:

"A law, repugnant to the Constitution, is void, and no one is obligated to obey it and no official empowered to enforce it."

-- Marbury v. Madison
Another goodun I found elsewhere:
An Unconstitutional Act is not law; it confers no rights: it imposes no duties; affords no protection; it creates no office; it is in legal contemplation, as inoperative as though it had never been passed. (Norton vs. Shelby County 118 US 425 p.442)

Problem is, doesn't the judicial branch have to confer a ruling?
