Hi! i am wondering if you can explain amendmant 7 in more depth.

Question

Thanks!

Answer 1

For the text of the Amendment, and an explanation of what it means, see
http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/data/constitution/amendment07/

Basically, it provides for trial by jury in civil cases, with limited ability to appeal findings of the jury to higher courts. There seem to be all sorts of exceptions that are hard to understand.
