texas v white - requires consent of the states
thanks for playing. better luck next time
The court’s ruling in Texas v White is “Texas (and the rest of the Confederacy) never left the Union during the Civil War, because a state cannot unilaterally secede from the United States.
Treasury bond sales by Texas during the war were invalid, and the bonds were therefore still owned by the post-war state.”
California has not asked to secede and no other state has said that it would approve such a move.
But thanks for trying! :-)
