1)1. In a single sentence, summarize the rule of law in the Gideon v. Wainwright case as it was decided by the United States Supreme Court.

2)State how the U.S. Supreme Court opinion in the Scott v. Illinois case changed the rule of law stated in the Gideon opinion.

3)Gideon argued that under the double jeopardy provision he could not be tried again after the U.S. Supreme Court had ruled in his favor. Why was he incorrect?

4)Four of the U.S. Supreme Court justices who decided the Argersinger v. Hamlin case also decided Gideon v. Wainwright. Name two of the four justices who heard both cases.

5)First, name the United States Supreme Court justice who wrote the decision for the Court in the Gideon case. Second, what was his role in the Betts decision?

This isn't business law. This is basic US Constitutional law.

Depending on the college, this would be covered in Con Law (covering all of the constitutional law) or in Con law 2 (covering the bill of rights).

either way, see my answer earlier. Email me your proposed answers, and I can critique you and tutor you if you want. but I won't do your homework for you. You won't learn anything that way, but I will help you learn the course material.
