You are an attorney. Your client, who is in prison, says the government is violating her Fourteenth Amendment rights. What do you do?

If your client is claiming that the government is violating her Fourteenth Amendment rights, you would begin by researching her case to see if the Fourteenth Amendment applies. If it does not apply, you would explain to your client that the Fourteenth Amendment does not apply to her because she is a naturalized citizen rather than a U.S. citizen from birth. If the Fourteenth Amendment does apply, you would file a motion for a mistrial based on violation of the Constitution.


Has the Fifth amendment review right to grand jury been incorporated?

Generally speaking, the Fifth Amendment guarantee that "[n]o person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury" has NOT been incorporated by the Fourteenth Amendment. In other words, this provision of the Fifth Amendment only applies to prosecution conducted by the federal government. It does not apply to persons prosecuted by a state or local government.

What amendment makes the Bill of Rights applicable to the States?

The Fourteenth Amendment has been used to selectively incorporate the Bill of Rights to the states, most frequently via the Due Process Clause, although the Equal Protection Clause has also been used. An earlier Supreme Court decision prevented the Bill of Rights from being applied to the states via the Privileges and Immunities Clause.


Does the Fourteenth Amendment apply to discriminatory action?

Yes it does by prohibiting the states from denying any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the law. The pertinent text in the first paragraph of the Fourteenth Amendment makes this abundantly clear: No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. See the Related Link for the entire text.


What part of the Constitution provides the foundation for the incorporation doctrine that applies the Bill of Rights to the states?

The foundation of the incorporation doctrine is the Fourteenth Amendment. The US Supreme Court has used the Due Process Clause and Equal Protection Clause to apply individual clauses of the Bill of Rights to the States.


What could the US Supreme Court have done with the incorporation doctrine?

Yes, the US Supreme Court has used selective incorporation to apply the Bill of Rights to the states via the Fourteenth Amendment Equal Protection and Due Process Clauses, as such application became relevant. The First, Second, Fourth and Sixth Amendments are fully incorporated; the Fifth is mostly incorporated; the Eighth is partially incorporated; the Third is incorporated only in the Second Circuit; the Seventh is currently unincorporated.If the Court didn't support incorporation the Bill of Rights would have become applicable to the states all at once, or not at all.For more information, see Related Questions, below.


How has the US Supreme Court ensured that states do not deny basic rights to the people?

The US Supreme Court has incorporated much of the Bill of Rights to the states via the Fourteenth Amendment. While this doesn't quite ensure states respect individuals' US Constitutional rights, it does give people a legal right to fight unconstitutional state laws and policies if or when they're enacted.

What amendment gives you the right to an impartial jury?

The 6th, 7th, and 14th Amendments all concern the right to trial by jury. But the 6th is the primary focus of the criminal justice system as it applies in the US. The 7th applies to civil trials and the 14th to Due Process. Only the 7th has not been applied scrupulously to state laws. (see related question)
