Someone accused of a crime generally has the right to a fair trial by an impartial jury. But a defendant doesn’t have the right to a trial in the county of his choice. Circumstances that make juror impartiality unlikely can, however, arise. In those circumstances, defense attorneys often “move” to have the trial take place somewhere else. (In most states, the prosecution can’t request a change of venue.)

Some state constitutions address the right to a change of venue, but in most states, the issue is left to statutes or court rules. These laws and rules explain how to request a change of venue, and may impose deadlines to file the requisite motion.

Ksenya-84 [330]

The drafting in 1776 ended up becoming Thomas Jefferson's defining moment. Jefferson was chosen by the Continental Congress to serve on the five-person committee responsible for preparing the declaration of independence, despite his wish to return to Virginia and assist in the creation of that state's constitution.

He was then given the assignment to create a draft document for that committee to review. Jefferson created a stunning declaration of the colonists' right to rebel against the British government and establish their own on the basis that all people are created equal and have the inalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. He drew on documents like the Virginia Declaration of Rights, state and local calls for independence, and his own draft of a Virginia constitution.

ivolga24 [154]

The principle of American democracy that is best demonstrated by that congressional action is the principle of Check and Balance. This is because this principle ensures that one branch of government makes sure that another branch does not abuse of its power or make mistakes with it and balances the power that each branch has. When the government abused its power by sending Japanese Americans to relocation camps during World War II, there was no balancing, so there had to be a compensation further in time. Congress then checked the situation, acknowledged the mistake and balanced the stakes by compensation of $20,000.
