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.

Federal Government, State, local, tribal, and territorial governments, the private sector, and other non-governmental organizations are responsible for executing these missions. The homeland security professionals must have a clear sense of what it takes to achieve this vision. <u>The second change</u> was about <em><u>three key and essential concepts for a comprehensive approach to homeland security: Security, Resilience and Customs and Exchange</u></em>.

(d) Fundamental human right of the citizens shall not be deprived without following the due process established by the constitution (e) Powers which are not directly given to a level of government to exercise power on such issues.

Explanation:

A federal constitution is a body of fundamental laws which clearly shows the powers given by the constitution to various levels of government within a federal state. A federal constitution is the supreme point of legal reference for all cases within a federation. A federal constitution separates powers such as

Reserved powers under the 10th Amendment :This is the powers the constitution set aside for the use of states in matters that concerned them. They are given the powers to make decisions on those matters that concern them without waiting for federal government to decide for them for example on road matters.

Supremacy of the constitution : This is a term which shows that the constitution is supreme and that its provisions shall have a binding force on all authorities and persons throughout the federation. If any other laws is inconsistent with the provisions of the constitution, then the constitution shall prevail, while such laws shall be declared null and void.

Concurrent powers under the 9th Amendment : This is the powers given by the constitution to federal government and states government to legislate on certain issues .but in order to eliminate crisis and confusion in the event of any conflict arising as a result of interest between the state and federal laws on these issues, then the federal laws take pre- eminence over those of state. For example issues such as education, health, sports and so on.

Due process powers under the 14th Amendment : This is the powers which states that citizens fundamental human right such as right to life, right to dignity of human persons, right to personal liberty and so on shall not be taken away from them except by following the due process stipulated by the constitution for such right to be deprived.

Implied power under Article iv : These are the powers which are not directly given to level of government but which is assumed that a level of government can exercise power on such issues because they are found to be the same with issues which are given to them by the constitution to legislate upon.
