Articles of Confederation: Article IV Summary

Borders and Bad Guys

  • Citizens get to move around freely to any of the states, and can conduct business in any state.
  • Someone who commits a crime and flees to another state has to be sent back to the state he came from (probably without supper).
  • States have to respect the legal rulings of other states.
  • No saying, "I thought it was legal over there!"
