The government may be violating the Fifth Amendment by trying to prosecute Mary and Bob again.
The Fifth Amendment states (among other things) that a person can be tried only once in federal court for the same offense. Given that Mary and Bob were already prosecuted for identity theft and won the case due to lack of evidence, the government can try to prosecute them again, but it will be violating the Fifth Amendment in doing so.

Explain the debate over representation when creating the constitution. What two agreements did the delegates decide on? How did
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

<h3>Debate over representation when creating the constitution.</h3>

Explanation:

When the Constitution was being revised during the Convention of Philadelphia, 1787, the main debate that occurred was on the issue of representation. The larger states favored representation according to the size and population of the states while the smaller states demanded for equal representation of states regardless of size and population.

This debate led to the outcome of two agreements among the delegates. Firstly, there would be two national houses of legislature in the Congress - The House of the Representatives and The Senate respectively. Secondly, the number of representatives on the House of Representatives would be proportionate to the size and population of each state while the number of representatives in the Senate would be equal for every state.

The issue was solved through a resolution called the Great Compromise.
