Which of the following statements best describes the supreme court ruling in the dred scott case? a. that scott, once a slave, was now a free man with full rights. b. that scott, once a slave, would be free upon returning to a free state. c. that scott, as a slave, was not a citizen and therefore had no right to sue. d. that scott, as a slave, would have to serve out the rest of his agreed-upon contract.

The correct answer is C) that Scott as a slave was not a citizen and therefore has no right to sue.  

The statement that best describes the Supreme Court ruling in the Dread Scott case is that Scott as a slave was not a citizen and therefore has no right to sue.  

On the case of Dred Scott about civil rights in America, the Supreme Court ruling was that neither free blacks or slaves could be American citizens. That slaves were property and if the owners moved to another state, the slave was still property. And that the Missouri compromise was against the law because Congress had no power to decide where slavery was allowed. The demand of Dred Scott was that he should be free because his owner had lived in a state that promoted freedom, and then he moved to a state that supported slavery.
