Due Process is a constitutional guarantee that ensures fair treatment through the normal judicial system, protecting individuals from arbitrary denial of life, liberty, or property. It mandates that legal proceedings follow established rules and principles, allowing individuals the right to be heard. Trial by Jury refers to the right of individuals to have their case decided by a group of impartial peers, rather than solely by a judge, ensuring community participation in the legal process and safeguarding against government overreach. Together, these principles uphold justice and protect individual rights within the legal system.
