Explanation

The correct answer is "double jeopardy." Double jeopardy refers to the legal principle that protects individuals from being prosecuted twice for the same offense after they have already been acquitted. This protection is guaranteed under the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution. It ensures that individuals are not subjected to multiple trials and potential punishment for the same alleged crime, preventing the government from using its power to harass or oppress individuals through repeated prosecutions.

Explanation

In Chapter 5 Section 2 Reading Notes, the question asks for a comparison between civil liberties and civil rights. Civil liberties refer to the individual freedoms and rights protected by the Constitution, such as freedom of speech and religion.

Therefore, the correct answer is "rights" as it accurately distinguishes between civil liberties and civil rights.

Explanation

Slander refers to the act of orally spreading false information about someone with the intention to cause harm.

Submit
9. Statements, usually made under oath, suggesting that the person speaking is guilty of a crime.

Explanation

Self-incrimination refers to the act of making statements, often under oath, that suggest the person speaking is guilty of a crime. This concept is closely tied to the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution, which protects individuals from being compelled to testify against themselves in criminal cases. By choosing to remain silent or not answer certain questions, individuals can exercise their right against self-incrimination. This principle is essential in safeguarding the rights of individuals and ensuring a fair legal process.

Submit

Incorporation is an important aspect of ensuring constitutional rights are upheld uniformly across the United States.

Submit

This allows the Supreme Court to maintain consistency and fairness in the judicial system.

Engel vs. Vitale involved the issue of prayer in public schools, Lemon vs. Kutzman established a three-pronged test for determining if government actions violate the Establishment Clause, and Texas vs. Johnson dealt with the burning of the American flag as a form of political expression, which was protected under the 1st Amendment.

Submit
24. According to your matrix the following cases had to do with which amendment? 1.)  Katz vs. Ohio 2.)  Terry vs. Ohio

Explanation

The correct answer is 4th. The cases mentioned, Katz vs. Ohio and Terry vs. Ohio, both relate to the 4th amendment. The 4th amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures and requires that search warrants be supported by probable cause. In Katz vs. Ohio, the Supreme Court ruled that a warrant is required to wiretap a public telephone booth, extending the protections of the 4th amendment to electronic communications. In Terry vs. Ohio, the Court established the "stop and frisk" exception to the 4th amendment, allowing police officers to conduct limited searches without a warrant in certain circumstances.

Submit
25. In your matrix there was a court case referencing the 7th amendment - trial by jury in civil suits

Explanation

The explanation for the answer "False" is that the 7th amendment of the United States Constitution guarantees the right to a trial by jury in civil suits involving a dispute over $20 or more. However, the statement in the question suggests that there was a court case referencing the 7th amendment, which does not necessarily mean that the case involved a trial by jury. Therefore, the answer is false as the statement does not explicitly state that the court case involved a trial by jury.
