Engblom was a guard in a New York State prison. She lived in a home owned by the prison, and provided as part of her pay.
The guards went on strike, and the State called in National guardsmen to guard the prison. The State evicted the strikers from their prison owned homes, and used them to house the National guardsmen that were replacing them.
Engblom sued, claiming that the States action violated the 3rd amendment ban on quartering soldiers in private homes without the owners consent.
The Supreme Court ruled that the ban included "tenants" as well as "owners", and that therefore it was illegal for the State to quarter the guardsmen in the prison guards homes without their consent. The State argued - unsuccessfully - that since they'd evicted Engblom, she was no longer a tenant and had no 3rd amendment right.
Engblom still lost the case, but on other, unrelated, grounds. (Immunity of State officials from suit from unknowing violation of the law)
