A quick definition of due-process rights:

Term: Due-Process Rights

Definition: Due-process rights are very important rights that everyone has. These rights include the right to life, liberty, and property. These rights are so important that they must be protected by laws that are fair and just. This means that everyone should be treated fairly and equally under the law.

Related Terms: Due Process, Due Process Clause, Fundamental-Fairness Doctrine

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Due-process rights are the rights that are so important that they require fairness and justice to be followed. These rights include the right to life, liberty, and property. The due-process clause and fundamental-fairness doctrine are related to due-process rights.

Example: If someone is accused of a crime, they have the right to a fair trial. This means that they have the right to be heard in court, to have a lawyer, and to present evidence in their defense. If these rights are not respected, the trial would not be fair and just.

Explanation: Due-process rights are essential to ensure that people are treated fairly and justly. The example illustrates how due-process rights are applied in the criminal justice system. If someone is accused of a crime, they have the right to a fair trial, which means that the court must follow certain procedures to ensure that the trial is fair and just. If these procedures are not followed, the trial would not be fair, and the accused person's due-process rights would be violated.

Wait y'all both got stopped mid-RC? That's so crummy
12:29
I have a writing sample on file but it’s the old format, should I do argumentative writing?
ParallelAgreeableOrangutan
12:30
I think format is less important than demonstrating that you can write well unassisted
12:37
i’ll probably retake it since i have no idea how good it was
12:37
it was probably bad cause i was working full time on the hill and smoking way too much weed to handle all the stress
ParallelAgreeableOrangutan
12:40
My understanding is that they basically want to make sure you can string sentences together unassisted—not even good arguments, flow, etc.—but I figure better safe than sorry
12:43
i no speak good
12:47
i think i wrote my writing sample in like 20 mins or something i blocked it out of my memory
12:47
i doubt it holds that much weight anyways
