It did not involve treaty rights and their impact on a constitutional right, IIRC.

OMG, I inadvertently started a discussion of Marbury! Run for the hills! :)

Marbury "authorizes" the Supreme Court to review acts of Congress. A treaty, or a "trade agreement" for that matter, ultimately is such a thing.
