Answer 1

The situation that describes a violation of the due process clause under the Fourteenth Amendment is:

• The police performed a search on Stanley's house for illegal substances even though they did not have a search warrant. When they found a trunk full of illegal substances, they arrested Stanley.

This situation violates the due process clause because it disregards the requirement for a search warrant, which is essential for protecting individuals against unreasonable searches and seizures.
