Amendment 7

Amendment 7 - Trial by Jury in Civil Cases

Amendment seven is probably one of the most important amendments in the united states constitution.  Although the number 7 usually signifies one LUCK, in the case of the U.S. citizen charged with a crime, the amendment 7 is a BLESSING. 

In Suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise re-examined in any Court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law.
