The Miranda Rule refers to the fact that police officials must read an accused person of their rights (like the right to remain silent and right to an attorney). If an officer of the law fails to do this, the case will be thrown out by the court.

In this case, one could see how people would critique this rule. This rule makes it so that if an individual commits a crime and is caught they could be let free if their Miranda rights are not read to them. This is the case with Miranda (the man from Miranda v. Arizona that establishes this law). He confessed his guilt after hours of interrogation with police but his case was thrown out, as his lawyer argued that he was unaware of his rights.

In order to maintain the two great political parties as vital bonds of national unity, early-nineteenth-century politicians ____

MArishka [77]

Answer:

Slavery

Explanation:

Early nineteenth century politicians avoided any public discussions about the issue of slavery owing mainly to the fact that an issue like slavery could cause a national disorder if two sections of the nation had an argument about it. They preferred to remain silent on the issue of slavery, and did not bring it up as a means of gaining favour from the black population. During the 1848 presidential elections in the United states, both the Democrats and the other party did not involve themselves in any discussions related to or concerning slavery. This was a way of maintain national unity.

by the late 1650's the english people had had enough of Cromwell's military dictatorship. Many people wanted to restore the mona

Ad libitum [116K]

The Restoration, which extended from 1660 to 1668, took place during the Stuart period and was preceded by Cromwell's Interregnum, which gave England various forms of republican government.

Three major events took place during the Restoration. One of them was the issuing of the Declaration of Breda in 1660. This declaration offered pardon to every person that had fought against Charles II and it also stated that the King would rely on the assistance and advice of the Parliament, especially when it came to taxation issues. Furthermore, the Declaration of Breda specified that no man should be prosecuted for differences in religion. However, the passing of the Clarendon Code (1661-1665), another major event during the Restoration period, went against what the Declaration of Breda had stated previously. The Clarendon Code, which was made up of four acts, was a way of prosecuting puritans. The main aim of these statutes was to prevent puritans from coming into government again. The monarch was pressured into accepting the Code. Moreover, another major event was the first general election fought on party lines in 1679. This election meant the emergence of two political parties: the Whigs, which were liberals, and the Tories, which were conservatives. While the Whigs were supporters of change and the constitutional monarchy, the Tories were supporters of the Crown and royal absolutism. The Whigs ended up winning the elections, which led to a Whig majority in Parliament.
