 | | Amendment V (the Fifth Amendment) of the United States Constitution, which is part of the Bill of Rights, is related to legal procedure. | | | The just compensation provision of the Fifth Amendment did not originally apply directly to the states, but the federal courts now hold that the Fourteenth Amendment extended the effects of that provision to the states. | | | Maryland (1969), the Supreme Court "incorporated" the clause under the Fourteenth Amendment. |

| | Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution |
| | Amendment V (the Fifth Amendment) of the United States Constitution, which is part of the Bill of Rights, states: | | | Through the Fourteenth Amendment, the United States Supreme Court has applied all of the Fifth Amendment's guarantees, except the grand jury requirement, to state governments as well. | | | To plead the Fifth is to invoke the Fifth Amendment's protection that no person "shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself" -- that is, to refuse to testify on the grounds that one's testimony might be taken (or mistaken) as incriminating oneself. |

| | Second, outside of custody, the Fifth Amendment privilege may be eliminated by removing the risk of criminal prosecution, either through immunity or through law reform: removing the risk of prosecution thus renders the statements non-self-incriminating for Fifth Amendment purposes. | | | The Fifth Amendment right, in other words, is a trial right that ripens only at a prosecution, not a right against compelled self-incrimination per se. | | | The case now pending before the Supreme Court brings attention to that conflict and thus requires the Court to clarify the meaning of the Fifth Amendment privilege. |

| | If a witness's claim of privilege is upheld by a court, the fifth amendment does not forbid adverse inferences against parties to civil actions when a witness refused to testify. | | | Although a party has the right to take the Fifth Amendment against self-incrimination in a civil case, the right is not without its price. | | | If a spouse invokes a fifth amendment privilege regarding questions about adultery, a court is free to impose a variety of sanctions against that spouse, including the denial of affirmative relief. |
