Did Cherokees' repeated appeals to the US government slow down the theft of their land?

The Cherokees' repeated appeals to the U.S. government did not significantly slow down the theft of their land. Despite their efforts to negotiate and seek legal protection for their territory, including cases like Worcester v. Georgia, the government ultimately prioritized expansion and economic interests over their rights. This culminated in policies like the Indian Removal Act of 1830, leading to the forced relocation known as the Trail of Tears, which resulted in the loss of their land and suffering for the Cherokee people.
