Constitutional Law lecture 3 focuses on individual rights, encompassing First Amendment freedoms (speech, press, religion), due process, equal protection, and landmark Supreme Court cases.
First Amendment Freedoms: Speech is categorized as protected or unprotected, with the Brandenburg test determining incitement. Religious freedom includes the Establishment and Free Exercise Clauses.
Due Process and Equal Protection: The Fourteenth Amendment guarantees due process (procedural and substantive) and equal protection, with varying levels of judicial scrutiny applied to different classifications.
Landmark Cases: Cases like Brown vs Board of Education, Obergefell vs Hodges, and Citizens United vs FEC illustrate the evolution of individual rights interpretation.
Understanding these principles is crucial for the bar exam and legal practice.
