In the Supreme Court case United States v. Windsor, the Court decided that the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) violated:

**b. the due process clause of the fifth**

The Court found that DOMA's definition of marriage as being only between a man and a woman denied same-sex couples their rights and protections, thus violating the principles of equal protection and due process under the Fifth Amendment.
