The ruling from the Taney Court held that a citizen of the United States could be a citizen of any state in the Union. In return, Congress held the only power to confer national citizenship. Under Article III of the U.S. Constitution, Taney concluded that no slave had ever been a citizen for the purposes of the Constitution. The court did determine that the Missouri Compromise of 1820 was unconstitutional in an effort to end slavery.

∙ 11y agoThis was the case of a slave who tried to sue for his freedom on the grounds that he had once lived on free soil, before being brought back to slave coutnry.
Since the local judges had never dealt with this kind of application, the case reached the Supreme Court, where they interpreted the Constitutional view of property to include slaves as property, meaning that slavery was legal in every state.
