Final answer:
The claim that 'Coker v. Georgia' approved a bifurcated trial procedure in capital cases is false. The bifurcated trial procedure was approved in 'Gregg v. Georgia', whereas 'Coker v. Georgia' ruled that the death penalty cannot be imposed for raping. The correct answer is 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement that Coker v. Georgia approved a bifurcated trial procedure in capital cases is false. Coker v. Georgia, 433 U.S. 584 (1977), is significant for its ruling that a death sentence may not be imposed for the crime of raping. The bifurcated trial procedure, which involves a separate deliberation phase for determining guilt and another for sentencing in capital cases, was approved in a different case, Gregg v. Georgia, 428 U.S. 153 (1976). Gregg v. Georgia upheld Georgia's new death penalty statute and ended the nationwide moratorium on executions that began with Furman v. Georgia, 408 U.S. 238 (1972). The correct answer is 2.
