Ex parte Merryman was decided by Chief Justice Taney, but he was riding circuit. The case was not before the Supreme Court.John Paul Parks (talk) 05:04, 26 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This article says:

While Merryman was in jail awaiting a hearing, Taney had furniture and home-cooked meals brought to him in his cell. Merryman later named one of his sons Roger B. Taney Merryman in the Chief Justice's honor.

This needs some clarification. During the Merryman case, wasn’t Merryman locked up in a military fort where Taney couldn’t reach him or affect the conditions of his confinement? Anythingyouwant (talk) 08:49, 17 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
