Answer 2

Answer:

B. The Bill of Rights did not apply at the state level.

Explanation:

Constitution's Bill of Rights restricts only the powers of the federal government and not those of the state governments. John Barron filed against the city of Baltimore, claiming that the city had deprived him of his property in violation of the Fifth Amendment, which provides that the government may not take private property without just compensation.

Ruling: Barron had no claim against the state under the Bill of Rights because the Bill of Rights does not apply to the states.
