Question

In the Fawkes v. Texas trial, defense attorney Sunil Sharma wanted to question his defendant’s accuser in court. Which constitutional clause can Sharma invoke to do so?​

Answer 1

The Confrontation Clause of the Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is said, verbatim: "in all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right…to be confronted with the witnesses against him."

All this means that the accused must, is legal duty, to have a face-to-face confrontation, be present there to be asked.

Answer 2

Sharma should invoke the confrontation clause of the 6th Amendment which gives the accused the right to question their accuser.
