Answer 1

In Michelle's case, she could cite the following amendments:

• 6th Amendment: This amendment guarantees the rights of criminal defendants, including the right to counsel (public defender) and the right to confront witnesses.

• 14th Amendment: This amendment includes the Due Process Clause, which ensures that all individuals have the right to fair treatment in the judicial system, which could be relevant since she was not informed of her rights.

Therefore, the relevant amendments for Michelle's case are 6th and 14th.
