A. The right to an attorney after being accused of a crime.

Explanation:

Gideon v. Wainwright was a case of the United States Supreme Court. In this case, the Supreme Court ruled that the Sixth Amendment requires states to provide an attorney to people who have been accused of a crime and are unable to afford their own attorneys. This also included counsel. While it had been clear that such procedures were necessary for the federal government, they were now required in the case of states as well.
