Which bill of rights protection has not been incorporated into the fourteenth
amendment so that it applies to the states?
o
a. freedom of religion
o
b. the right to a jury trial in noncriminal cases
o
c. the right to privacy
o
d. the right to bear arms

ANSWER:

The correct option is B: The right to jury trial in non-criminal cases.

EXPLANATION:

This "Bill of rights protection" has not been "incorporated" in the 14th amendment. For non-criminal cases, it is not required for the defendant to be tried by a jury. In other words, usually a jury listens to the case of a defendant in all types of criminal cases but for non-criminal cases, it is not required for a jury to be present. The non-criminal cases are handled by the judge on his or her own without having to go through long proceedings.
