What was the laws for black people in fee states?
It must have been expensive to go to trial, why did Mrs. Emerson fight so hard for Dred Scott to come back as a slave? |

Scott tried to pay 300 dollars for freedom, but Mrs.Emerson denied his purpose. Why did she deny? Were 300 dollars not enough? How much money did slaves generally pay for their freedoms? |

Why do you think Dred Scott decided to take his owner to court for his freedom rather than revolt like Nat Turner? |

Why didn't slavery become legal in all states, if Taney ruled in favor of Emerson as well as the Court? |

Was the verdict for the Dred Scott case a one time thing? or did the court use it on other cases in the future? |
