Question

Kathy was returning to the united states after a vacation when the customs service confiscated some goods she had purchased abroad and brought back with her. the determination of whether the government acted properly and the type of hearing that she must be provided is an analysis of: a - procedural due process. b - substantial due process. c - the equal protection clause. d - the commerce clause.

Answer 1

Procedural due process is correct. 

Answer 2

The correct answer is A) procedural due process.

The determination of whether the government acted properly and the type of hearing that she must be provided is an analysis of the procedural due process.

Let's define what the term is. Procedural due process is the Constitutional requirement when the federal government denies a United States citizen of life, liberty, or property. The Constitution protects the right of the citizen to be heard and the final decision on the issue must be made by a proper and neutral decisionmaker. That is why Katy can claim her belongings confiscated by the customs service.
