They are assigned an attorney by the court.
Clarence Gideon had been charged with a burglary in Florida, and the judge said he could not appoint an attorney for Mr. Gideon because the crime of which he was accused was not a capital offense.  Gideon claimed he was entitled to be represented by counsel, but the judge did not agree.  Gideon was convicted and went to state prison.  From there, he appealed to the US Supreme Court in a suit against the Secretary of the Florida Department of Corrections.  (By the time the case came before the Supreme Court, that was Louie L. Wainwright, thus "Gideon v. Wainwright.")  
The Supreme Court agreed with Mr. Gideon's claim, and since then, all persons, whether in state or federal court, are entitled to the right to counsel and an attorney is appointed if they cannot afford to hire their own.

Do you think the bill of rights was necessary? Why or why not? At least 75 to 100 words.
pychu [463]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

without the bill of rights, humans would not be where we are now. The bill of rights has given the people freedom. it may not seem like it but we have a lot more freedom than you'd think. the bill also keeps us in check. we have laws we have to follow and if we were to break them, we get consiqeunces. Think of it like this. We have a world with no laws no rules total freedom to do whatever we would like. Everything would be out of place. there would be no sense of order. but with the bill of rights it gives us something to keep us in check and not to become something we are not.

Why did the Bolsheviks triumph over anti-Communists?
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

The Bolsheviks defeated anti-Communists because their actions were approved by the people and they were supported by the military.

Explanation:

The Russian Revolution of 1917 was one of the volatile political protests of the century. The result of this protest resulted in the uprooting of the Romanov Dynasty and czarist rule.

The Bolsheviks were led by Vladimir Lenin and were successful in driving out the imperial dynasty. After the Russian Revolt of 1917, the Russian Civil War began in 1918 in which anti-Bolsheviks (White and anti-Communist) stood against Bolsheviks (Reds and Communists). The Bolsheviks were able to defeat Whites as they have already become popular amongst them because of the Russian Revolution of 1917 and were backed up by the military.
