When is a grand indictment required according to the fifth amendment?

According to the Fifth Amendment, a grand indictment is required in federal felony cases, meaning that serious criminal charges must be formally presented to a grand jury before a defendant can be tried. This provision ensures that there is enough evidence to warrant a trial, providing a safeguard against unfounded accusations. However, the requirement does not apply to all criminal cases, as some misdemeanors can be prosecuted without a grand jury indictment.
