To be clear, are you talking about US Constitution amendments? If yes, I am confused. (Ignore for a moment that we are talking about Israeli jurisprudence.)

US 4th: It prohibits unreasonable searches and seizures and sets requirements for issuing warrants: warrants must be issued by a judge or magistrate, justified by probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and must particularly describe the place to be searched and the persons or things to be seized.

US 15th: The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.

Why is either of these relevant in US jurisprudence?




I assume they meant 5th

  nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law


I thought it was the 6th amendment:

"the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial..."
