I think they should get two, with no more after that.

I think they should get one, unless new evidence comes to light that completely changes things.

I think they should be allowed only one. That means they get a full trial to start with and, if something is wrong, then they should get one additional. Why would they need two? And I also believe that the appeal should be within 30 days of the original trial, which would cut down immensely on the costs to the taxpayers. But I also believe that if someone gets the death penalty, then they should not sit on Death Row for many years - if that is their sentene, then it should be carried out almost immediately after their final appeal.

As a taxpayer, I think none, but if it were my life on the line I would have a different opinion. Our justice system is not infallible. Unfortunately, innocent people are convicted and have even been executed. Although there are surely abuses, I think it is worth the cost if it spares one innocent person.

One to two, depending on the crime and evidence.

None, if beyond the shadow of a doubt they are guilty!

One, and only under certain circumstances.

depending on the accused crime i think it should vary, but typically just one.

One based on evidence.
One based on procedure.
That's it.
