The 3rd Amendment to the United States Constitution is related to the British Quartering Acts, which required colonists to house and provide for British soldiers in times of peace and war. The 3rd Amendment makes it so illegal during peacetime to quarter troops in private homes without the owners consent. Only in wartime is it legal but even then it has to comply with the law.
