Question

the supreme courts decision
the supreme court faced a difficult question about how to interpret the rights of citizens. should the “due - process clause” of the fourteenth amendment give citizens protections from the bill of rights (including the fifth amendment) at the state level?
the supreme court decided in an 8 - to - 1 ruling that palkas conviction and execution should be upheld. the court determined that due process could not be incorporated at the state level under the fourteenth amendment. the decision spelled out certain “fundamental” rights that had to be enforced at the state level, including freedom of speech and religion. protection from double jeopardy was not seen as a fundamental right
in the case, the supreme court ruled that due process:
allowed the fifth amendment to be applied to state laws.
should apply to reversing frank palkas conviction.
could not be incorporated by the fourteenth amendment
