Is Habeas Corpus as a guarantee of fair treatment named in both the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments?In: US Constitution |
[Edit] |
While the term "Habeas Corpus" appears in the body of the Constitution (Article I, Section 9 ... "The privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it."), it does not appear in either the Fifth or the Fourteenth Amendments, although the broad concept is echoed in them: The term Habeas Corpus does not appear in the US Constitution. The concept upon which it is based is found in both of the amendments:
V. No person shall be . . . deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
and
XIV. No State shall . . . nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
