The answer is: Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed.

The Eighth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States establishes that bonds, fines and punishments must be fair and humane.

For example, in Georgia, the Supreme Court ruled in 1972 that the death penalty, as applied at that time, violated this amendment. The court affirmed that the death penalty was cruel and unusual punishment because it was not applied fairly.
