The universal guarantee of due process is in the Fifth Amendment to the U. S. The American Constitution which provides No person shall...be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law, and applied to all states by the 14th Amendment.
Before the Fourteenth Amendment was passed with the Due Process Clause, the term âdue processâ and âlaw of the landâ were spoken and written interchangeably. New York was the first State to include the term of due process within its statutory Bill of Rights in 1787.he Fifth Amendment of the United States Bill of Rights granted due process to the actions of the Federal Government. It was not until the passing of the Fourteenth Amendment that the idea applied to the states themselves. Both clauses, however, are largely identified as the same.
