A man accused of a crime in court has a right to a lawyer whether he/she is appointed or bought by the accused; a speedy public trial; who the accusers are; an impartial jury; recognize the charges brought against the accused, and the proof found. They are all found under the Sixth Amendment.
EXPLANATION:
The rights of the accused, in law, are the rights and privileges of a person suspected of a crime, assuring him of a fair trial. These rights were originally (commonly from the 18th century onwards) limited to actual trials, but in the second half of the 1900s, many countries started to expand it to the times before and after the trial.
All legal systems deliver, at least on paper, assure that protect certain basic rights of the accused. These involve the right to be trial by a jury (unless the jury trial is dropped), to be represented by legal counsel (at least when he is suspected of a serious crime), to attend evidence and witnesses that will allow him to verify his innocence, and to face (i.e., cross-examine) the accusers, and freedom from irrational seizures and searches and freedom from double danger.
Certain rights are very common enclosed to the process. The accused person must not go to jail indefinitely but must be granted a speedy trial. Involved with this problem is the right to a reasonable guarantee and prohibitions to be detained for more than a particular time without guarantee.
