The Eighth Amendment prohibits the federal government from imposing excessive bail, excessive fines, or cruel and unusual punishments.
Explanation
The Eighth Amendment was adopted, as part of the Bill of Rights, in 1791.
The Eighth Amendment of the Constitution states: 'Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.' The amendment is meant to safeguard Americans against excessive punishments. This provision was written in because of a case where a man named Titus Oates lied and caused many innocent people because of it.
