Which of the following is not a right specifically guaranteed by the Sixth Amendment?

• A. Speedy And Public Trial
• B. Right To Counsel
• C. Due Process Of Law
• D. Impartial Jury

Answer: (C)

The key idea is that the Sixth Amendment lists specific trial protections, while due process of law is a broader constitutional guarantee that appears in other amendments. The Sixth Amendment directly protects rights such as a speedy and public trial, the right to an impartial jury, and the right to counsel (along with protections related to confronting witnesses and obtaining favorable witnesses). “Due process of law” is a general fairness guarantee found in the Fifth Amendment (federal) and the Fourteenth Amendment (states). It ensures fair procedures across the justice system, but it isn’t a particular right enumerated within the Sixth Amendment itself. So, while due process underpins fair treatment, it isn’t a right specifically guaranteed by the Sixth Amendment.
