Answer:
Roger Sherman created the Connecticut Compromise at the constitutional convention, that addressed the concerns of both small large states about representation.
Explanation:
Roger Sherman was an American politician. He was the first mayor of New Haven, one of the authors of the Declaration of Independence and a signatory of the Constitution of the United States.
During the Constitutional Convention in 1787 there was a disagreement between the representatives of the large and small states. The small states sought a Congress in which all states were equally represented. The larger states wanted the number of delegates to be based on the population. That would give them more power over the smaller states. Sherman, together with Oliver Ellsworth, designed the solution that would be known as the Connecticut Compromise. The states were to be represented in the Senate with two people each, while the composition of the House of Representatives was based on the population.

This case reassures that an attorney should be appointed regardless of what type of crime is committed.
The Supreme Court justices, who voted unanimously for Gideon, discussed how appointing an attorney to those who cannot afford one is part of creating a fair and equal justice system.
