OBITER DICTA AND THE OPINION. .That some part of the opinion of the court is an obiter dictum, has been widely believed since the first effort to find an excuse for repudiating the binding and conclusive force of what the court had done. "Taney and the others went out of their way to deliver a series of obiter dicta," is a statement that has long been the favorite weapon with which the attempt is made to defend the North--for the great numbers therein of the same mind make it proper to speak of it as a whole-- against the nullification to which that section and the Northwest largely surrendered when the court by its famous decision blasted the legal hopes of the movement for free Territories for white people only. It is believed, as this representative writer goes on to explain, that the obiter dicta consist of "personal judgments not needed or relevant for the case in hand, and therefore not law." Being told that the court had rendered judgments not law, and that the judges wilfully had gone out of their way to do so, the attack on the opinion had the desired effect and "inflamed the public wrath immeasurably as a fresh aggression of the slave-power."1 Perhaps very few of those who came to believe that the opinion rested upon so rotton a foundation, understood very definitely why or wherein the dictum is said to lie. Some of those who led the assault upon the court differed from each other as to what was the dictum they professed to find, or as to wherein the court had rendered an extra judicial judgment. It will be important, therefore, first to find to what part of 1 Encyc. Americana, ed. 1903, Dred Scott Case. the court's opinion it is claimed that the obiter dictum is said to apply. To what it cannot apply is essential first to...

Book Synopsis The Dred Scott Case by : Don Edward Fehrenbacher

Book excerpt: Winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1979, The Dred Scott Case is a masterful examination of the most famous example of judicial failure--the case referred to as "the most frequently overturned decision in history."On March 6, 1857, Chief Justice Roger B. Taney delivered the Supreme Court's decision against Dred Scott, a slave who maintained he had been emancipated as a result of having lived with his master in the free state of Illinois and in federal territory where slavery was forbidden by the Missouri Compromise. The decision did much more than resolve the fate of an elderly black man and his family: Dred Scott v. Sanford was the first instance in which the Supreme Court invalidated a major piece of federal legislation. The decision declared that Congress had no power to prohibit slavery in the federal territories, thereby striking a severe blow at the the legitimacy of the emerging Republican party and intensifying the sectional conflict over slavery.This book represents a skillful review of the issues before America on the eve of the Civil War. The first third of the book deals directly with the with the case itself and the Court's decision, while the remainder puts the legal and judicial question of slavery into the broadest possible American context. Fehrenbacher discusses the legal bases of slavery, the debate over the Constitution, and the dispute over slavery and continental expansion. He also considers the immediate and long-range consequences of the decision.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Book Synopsis Origins of the Dred Scott Case by : Austin Allen
Download or read book Origins of the Dred Scott Case written by Austin Allen and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Supreme Court's 1857 Dred Scott decision denied citizenship to African Americans and enabled slavery's westward expansion. It has long stood as a grievous instance of justice perverted by sectional politics. Austin Allen finds that the outcome of Dred Scott hinged not on a single issue-slavery-but on a web of assumptions, agendas, and commitments held collectively and individually by Chief Justice Roger B. Taney and his colleagues. By showing us the political, professional, ideological, and institutional contexts in which the Taney Court worked, Allen reveals that Dred Scott was not simply a victory for the court's prosouthern faction. It was instead an outgrowth of Jacksonian jurisprudence, an intellectual system that charged the court with protecting slavery, preserving both federal power and state sovereignty, promoting economic development, and securing the legal foundations of an emerging corporate order-all at the same time.

Download or read book Dred Scott and the Problem of Constitutional Evil written by Mark A. Graber and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-07-03 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dred Scott and the Problem of Constitutional Evil , first published in 2006, concerns what is entailed by pledging allegiance to a constitutional text and tradition saturated with concessions to evil. The Constitution of the United States was originally understood as an effort to mediate controversies between persons who disputed fundamental values, and did not offer a vision of the good society. In order to form a 'more perfect union' with slaveholders, late-eighteenth-century citizens fashioned a constitution that plainly compelled some injustices and was silent or ambiguous on other questions of fundamental right. This constitutional relationship could survive only as long as a bisectional consensus was required to resolve all constitutional questions not settled in 1787. Dred Scott challenges persons committed to human freedom to determine whether antislavery northerners should have provided more accommodations for slavery than were constitutionally strictly necessary or risked the enormous destruction of life and property that preceded Lincoln's new birth of freedom.
