Answer:

C.Sixth Amendment

Step-by-step explanation:

The Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution codifies rights related to criminal cases in federal courts. The Supreme Court has ruled that these rights are so fundamental and important that the Fourteenth Amendment protects them in state courts by the due process clause.
