Most of our personal rights as American citizens are rooted in the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the Constitution in the state where we reside.
Most state constitutions are a mirrored version of the U.S. Constitution.
Other than our Constitutional rights, we have certain unwritten rights derived from English common law. That concern has continued and in fact has developed into not merely a concern but a major fear by many Americans today. Our most important personal rights are spelled out in the U.S. Constitution. Under Article VII, we are promised that the right to a jury trial shall be preserved. It does not say that any court rule can terminate our right to a jury.
