Explanation:

The Supreme Court ruled Dred Scott would not be freed. It also said Dred Scott had no right to sue because he wasn't a citizen. Further, the ruling stated the Missouri Compromise was unconstitutional because Congress didn't have the authority to ban slavery.

Answer:

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in the Dred Scott decision that Congress had exceeded its authority in the Missouri Compromise because it had no power to forbid or abolish slavery in the territories west of Missouri and north of latitude 36°30′.
