Explain the substantive and procedural protections afforded


Homework: Fourth, Fifth, And Sixth Amendment Rights

Due process under the Amendments to the U.S. Constitution can be broken down into two categories:

• Substantive due process
• Procedural due process.

Both are based on fundamental fairness. For example, the Fourth Amendment protects citizens against government unreasonable search and seizure of personal property. The Fifth and Sixth Amendments guarantee the procedures that the courts and police must follow to ensure fair treatment of persons arrested for crimes.
