No person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process is which amendment?

• A. Fourth Amendment
• B. Fifth Amendment
• C. Sixth Amendment
• D. First Amendment

Answer: (B)

The phrase about depriving a person of life, liberty, or property without due process is found in the amendment that enshrines fair procedures as a protection against government action. This amendment sets the rule that government cannot take away fundamental rights unless proper procedures are followed, ensuring notice, a hearing, and other safeguards. That emphasis on fair process is what makes this amendment the correct choice. The other amendments address different protections—unreasonable searches and seizures, speedy and public trials with counsel, and fundamental freedoms like speech and religion. Note that while due process also applies to state actions via another amendment, the specific language about deprivation without due process comes from this amendment.
