1. suppose you're an attorney. in a case you're presenting to a federal court, you argue that the person you're defending suffered cruel and unusual punishment. which amendment of the constitution should you cite? a. amendment iv b. amendment viii c. amendment iii d. amendment ix

The answer would be C, the eighth Amendment. It states that "Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted."

brainliest is someone you pick by simply clicking a button. it only shows up if there are two people that answered your question, then you decide who answer more accurately with detail and explanation and you give that person the title "brainliest".

i hope this your understandings.

the answer is c, all the other options are things they are known for.

hope this ☺️
