Which amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees the right to a trial by jury in criminal cases?

  1. First Amendment.

  2. Fourth Amendment.

  3. Sixth Amendment.

  4. Eighth Amendment.

The correct answer is: Sixth Amendment.

The Sixth Amendment guarantees the right to a trial by jury in criminal cases. The First Amendment protects freedom of speech, religion, and press. The Fourth Amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures. The Eighth Amendment prohibits excessive fines and cruel and unusual punishment. These amendments do not explicitly mention the right to a trial by jury in criminal cases, making them incorrect choices.
