The Sixth Amendment gives you these rights; 1. Every person has a right to a speedy trial. 2.Accused people must be informed of the charge or charges brought against them. 3.If a case comes to trial, the accused persons have the right to question people who are witnesses against them. They can also bring their own witnesses who have evidence to support their case. 4.A person accused of an offense has the right to be represented in court by an attorney. (And since 1963, a person who can't afford a lawyer must have one provided by the court.)
