The court ruled that African-Americans had no access to federal courts primarily in the 1857 Dred Scott v. Sandford case, where it determined that individuals of African descent, whether free or enslaved, could not be considered citizens of the United States. This decision was based on the belief that the framers of the Constitution did not intend for people of African descent to have the same rights as white citizens. Consequently, the court concluded that African-Americans had no standing to sue in federal court, reinforcing the systemic racial discrimination of the time.
