Amendment VII

Amendment VII

In Suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise re-examined in any Court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law.

This is another one tied in with the others.  This one discusses more on the trial part with which a jury is added. This coincides with making sure that every person is treated fairly given the benefit of the doubt.

I thought this image was especially good for depicting this Amendment because they have a lot of these jury trials in this show.  Its one of my favorite shows and most all of the crimes are prosecuted by jury trial.
