Gideon v. Wainwright
The Supreme Court ruled that criminal defendants who cannot afford their attorneys have a right under the Fourteenth Amendment to have attorneys appointed on their behalf by the state.
The Supreme Court's progressive approach to criminal justice in the 1950s included this case. The Warren Court granted criminal defendants an unparalleled range of rights, such as the right to legal representation during questioning, the right to remain silent during an arrest and questioning, and the right to be made aware of these rights. Less well-known instances were also included in the Court's affirmation of criminal defendants' constitutional rights.
Hence in Gideon v. Wainwright (1963), the Supreme Court acknowledged that justice could only prevail if the state supplied an indigent defendant with an attorney.
