Question

The 14th amendment guarantees due process, which means the government cannot, without a court approved reason, take away or limit what?

Answer 1

Among them was the Fourteenth Amendment, which prohibits the states from depriving “any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.” When it was adopted, the Clause was understood to mean that the government could deprive a person of rights only according to law applied by a court.
