Answer:

Gitlow v. New York (freedom of speech) it was a decision of the United States Supreme Court, stating that the Fourth Amendment of the United States Constitution was stipulated as a First Amendment Revision protecting freedom of expression and freedom of the press to apply in the US states.

Gideon v. Wainwright (right to a lawyer) this is a case of the United States Supreme Court. In it, the Supreme Court unanimously ruled that states are required, under the Sixth Amendment to the US Constitution, to provide a lawyer to defendants in criminal cases that cannot afford their own lawyers.
