The right for a citizen to have a What_does_the_Seventh_Amendment_protectby jury in civil suits for an amounts in excess of $20.

The majority of US states have established laws that disallow a trial by jury in many civil cases. The basic fact is no state can enact a law which infringes on or takes away the constitutional right of person. That means that a person has the right if they wish to go through the legal process of challenging a state law that directly relate to the matter.

The use of the Fourteenth Amendment is the way in which the majority of state laws are challenged as being unconstitutional on the grounds of selective incorporation.
