Read the passage from the opinion of the court in Dred Scott v. Sandford, written by Justice Taney. Upon the whole, therefore, i

t is the judgment of this court, that it appears by the record before us that the plaintiff in error is not a citizen of Missouri, in the sense in which that word is used in the Constitution; and that the Circuit Court of the United States, for that reason, had no jurisdiction in the case, and could give no judgment in it. Its judgment for the defendant must, consequently, be reversed, and a mandate issued, directing the suit to be dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
What claim does Taney make in this passage?

As a citizen of Missouri, Sanford can pursue a case against Scott.

The Missouri circuit court does not have jurisdiction in the case against Sanford.

Scott should pursue his case against Sanford in a state other than Missouri.

Scott is a citizen of the United States, but not of the state of Missouri.

Which statement strays from the topic of a proposed leash law? (a) I feel safer when I see that a dog is on a leash. (b) Leashes
kherson [118]

The statement that strays from the topic of a proposed leash law is d. Some breeds don't deserve their bad reputation. By discriminating which dogs must be walked with a leash and which mustn't, there will be a misunderstanding of the purpose of holding dogs with a leash. The focus of the law should be to protect the animals (mostly if they're not trained), since dogs can be injured or get lost, no matter their breed.
