He was in private practice in <a href="/wiki/Francestown,_New_Hampshire" title="Francestown, New Hampshire">Francestown</a> from 1812 to 1816. He also joined the Freemasons. </p><p>His education contributed to his early start in law, which led to his later political positions. During his time in Francestown, he wrote the <i>Hillsborough Resolves</i> to defend the Madison administration for their decisions in the <a href="/wiki/War_of_1812" title="War of 1812">War of 1812</a>, which marked the beginning of his political involvement.

In quick succession, he was appointed to the <a href="/wiki/New_Hampshire_Supreme_Court" title="New Hampshire Supreme Court">Superior Court of Judicature</a> from 1817 to 1823, and in 1823, he was elected as the <a href="/wiki/List_of_Governors_of_New_Hampshire" class="mw-redirect" title="List of Governors of New Hampshire">Governor of New Hampshire</a>. During the time of his gubernatorial election, there was factionalism within the party. The caucus chose Samuel Dinsmoor as the candidate for governor, but an "irregular" public convention elected Woodbury as the other candidate. Woodbury defeated Dinsmoor by a wide margin, but his one year as governor was a failure. He tried to reconcile the Federalists and Democratic-Republicans but did not make a lot of progress.

The primary issue was whether the Fugitive Slave Act was constitutional. Woodbury ruled in favor of the rights of slaveholders by arguing that the compromises in the US Constitution, such as the Fugitive Slave Clause, bound the states to enforce the act. As a strict constructionist, he defended the rights of slaveholders as protected in the Constitution regardless of his personal stance on slavery. Woodbury viewed slavery as a political question that should be settled by each state: "this Court has no alternative, while they exist, but to stand by the Constitution and laws with fidelity to their duties and their oaths... to go where that Constitution and the laws lead, and not to break both."<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>The decision helped reinforce the ideas that slavery was written into the Constitution and that slaveholders' rights were protected.

His reasoning was the basis for the Cooley Doctrine, a later development by his successor, Justice Benjamin R. Curtis. </p><p>In the <i>License Cases</i>, the Court dealt with state liquor-censoring statutes. Lacking a clear precedent for how much power the states had under the Constitution to regulate commerce, the justices were not unified enough to write a majority opinion. Woodbury's opinion focused on the context on a case-by-case basis instead of deciding based on an abstract principle of commerce power. He stated that the "subject of buying and selling within a state is one as exclusively belonging to the power of the state over its internal trade as that to regulate foreign commerce is with the general government under the broadest construction of that power."<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> He distinguished between a prohibition on selling liquor on a certain day and a prohibition on imports, which would reach into the federal government's jurisdiction of commerce. Woodbury studied the particulars of the case instead of examining only the source of power in the Commerce Clause. The Court later followed Woodbury's reasoning in <i><a href="/wiki/Cooley_v._Board_of_Wardens" title="Cooley v. Board of Wardens">Cooley v. Board of Wardens</a></i> that it would decide on a case-by-case basis depending on whether the subject of regulation was local in nature or required national legislation. Woodbury's opinion had helped bring about that shift. </p><p>Woodbury's contributions to the interpretation of the Commerce Clause extended to a defense of states' rights in <i>Waring v. Clarke</i>. He dissented from the majority's attempts to expand federal admiralty jurisdiction. A ship accident had occurred near <a href="/wiki/New_Orleans" title="New Orleans">New Orleans</a> on the <a href="/wiki/Mississippi_River" title="Mississippi River">Mississippi River</a>, and the Court was to decide whether the federal government or the <a href="/wiki/Louisiana" title="Louisiana">Louisiana</a> government had jurisdiction over it.

Woodbury warned that overextending federal powers would lead to "a struggle for jurisdiction between courts of the states and courts of the United States, always delicate, and frequently endangering the harmony of our political system."<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> He advocated states' rights and indicated how he would rule in future slavery cases in what is now called a <a href="/wiki/Strict_constructionism" title="Strict constructionism">strict constructionist</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Legacy">Legacy</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Levi_Woodbury&amp;action=edit&amp;section=9" title="Edit section: Legacy"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Justice_Woodbury.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/67/Justice_Woodbury.jpg/150px-Justice_Woodbury.jpg" decoding="async" width="150" height="200" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/67/Justice_Woodbury.jpg/225px-Justice_Woodbury.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/67/Justice_Woodbury.jpg/300px-Justice_Woodbury.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3024" data-file-height="4032" /></a><figcaption>Woodbury's gravesite</figcaption></figure> <p>Woodbury is one of the few individuals to have held a constitutional office in all three branches of the U.S. government and one of three people to have held a constitutional office in all three branches and also having served as a U.S. governor (the others being <a href="/wiki/Salmon_P._Chase" title="Salmon P.
