what were the 3 rulings/decisions the Supreme Court made in the Dred Scott Case?
do you have any idea? e.e
Maybe No blacks such as slaves or free slaves had the right to sue in Federal Court.
ruled (7–2) that a slave (Dred Scott) who had resided in a free state and territory (where slavery was prohibited) was not thereby entitled to his freedom; that African Americans were not and could never be citizens of the United States; and that the Missouri Compromise (1820), which had declared free all territories west of Missouri and north of latitude 36°30′, was unconstitutional. https://www.britannica.com/event/Dred-Scott-decision#:~:text=Sandford%2C%20legal%20case%20in%20which,the%20United%20States%3B%20and%20that
i made some would this be right?
No blacks such as slaves or free slaves had the right to sue in Federal Court. Slaves are included in the law of prohibition against the seizure of property. Slaves and those who were free did not have the legal right to be seen as a “Citizen” in america.
\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Hoodmemes Maybe No blacks such as slaves or free slaves had the right to sue in Federal Court. \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) a little similar to this.... They ruled that African Americans, whether they were slaves or had ancestors who were slaves, had no legal view in court. They felt that the Missouri Compromise was unconstitutional. In the eyes of the court, Dred Scott had no legal right to request his freedom.
