Answer:

a. liberty and property interests.

Step-by-step explanation:

A law can be defined as the system of principles, regulations and rules established by legislature, that is adopted in a community, society or country to regulate the actions of its citizens, members or employees.

Thus, law is a tool used by the judiciary, lawyers, individuals, organizations, and even government to ensure everybody is well behaved, non-criminal and civil in their actions. Therefore, a law creates the foundation for ethical behavior.

In circumstances where there are aberration, the law is enforced as a punishment and penalty for wrongdoings or misdeeds.

Hence, due process of the law protects an individual's liberty and property interests because it ensures the right legal procedures are followed and that all accused are given access (entitled) to a fair trial.
