Answer 4

The Great Depression arguably occurred during the tail end of the "Lochner era" in American legal history.  Instead of statutes enacted by legislatures, consider judge made law from the Supreme Court striking down statutes as unconstitutional infringements on the right to contract and various individual liberty guarantees of the 5th and 14th Amendments.  

"The Lochner era is a period in American legal history from roughly 1890 to 1937 in which the United States Supreme Court tended to strike down economic regulations mandating certain working conditions or wages, or limiting working hours. In the eponymous 1905 case of Lochner v. New York, the Court struck down a New York State law limiting the number of hours bakers could work on the grounds that it violated bakers' "right to contract," a right implicit in the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. This doctrine, known as Economic Substantive Due Process, defined the Court during the Lochner era."
