What was the Dred Scott case?

The case about a freeman was a decision made by U.S. Supreme Court that ruled that having lived in a free state and territory did not entitle an enslaved person, Dred Scott, to his freedom.

That means that the decision argued that, as someone's property, Scott was not a citizen and could not sue in a federal court.
