The speedy trial provision in the Sixth Amendment provides for:
A. trial by jury.
B. right to counsel.
C. right to a public trial.
D. None of the above
is it C
I disagree.
What does "speedy trial" mean?
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence.
So it provides by trial by jury, counsel, and a public trial. What happened to all of the above.
Perhaps you should read the sixth amendment to your teacher.
It has all the choices that I have in my question. what should i do now?
I have no idea what you should do. These quiz questions are poorly worded and the choices you are given are confusing at best. Is this an on-line course or a regular classroom? bobpursley is absolute correct in that the sixth amendment provides all of the above.
i'm taking an online course and i have to select one option in order to submit my exam.
A,B and C are correct. Check all three, or just one. Your confusion is justified, Amy. I don't think much of this course.
thank you so much for your help I really appreciate it.
Here's another opinion.
The question asks about the "speedy trial" provision." Is it possible that the right answer isn't listed -- making D the best choice?
