Chisholm v. Georgia is the first historically significant Supreme Court case...the first one that truly had big implications. Now, even though the 11th Amendment squashed this Supreme Court decision, Chisholm continued fighting to get his estate reimbursed for the rest of his life. After he died in 1810, Farquhar’s son-in-law Peter Trezevant kept the case alive on behalf of the estate. Finally, in November 1847, the Georgia General Assembly passed a bill to pay back the money owed to Farquhar’s estate. By that time, Trezevant was 79 years old and the family had been fighting to get their owed money for 58 years.
