Sixth Amendment
The
Sixth Amendment guarantees the rights of criminal defendants, including
the right to a public trial without unnecessary delay, the right to a
lawyer, the right to an impartial jury, and the right to know who your
accusers are and the nature of the charges and evidence against you. It
has been most visibly tested in a series of cases involving terrorism,
but much more often figures in cases that involve (for example) jury
selection or the protection of witnesses, including victims of sex
crimes as well as witnesses in need of protection from retaliation.

him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor,
and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense.
