question 10 of 20
read this passage from the magna carta:
to no one will we sell, to no one deny or delay right or
justice.²
which influential idea resulted from this clause?
a. justice for all
b. protection of private property
c. protection against martial law
d. consent of the governed

Explanation:

The Magna Carta clause states "To no one will we sell, to no one deny or delay right or justice," which emphasizes that justice should be accessible and not withheld from anyone. This directly aligns with the idea of "justice for all," as it rejects preferential treatment or denial of justice based on status or ability to pay. The other options (protection of private property, martial law protection, consent of the governed) are not directly addressed by this specific clause.

Answer:

A. Justice for all
