What is the test for "due process" in the context of the Fourteenth Amendment?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Madera v. Board of Education of City of New York, 386 F.2d 778 (2nd Cir. 1967):
The Fourteenth Amendment prohibits a state from depriving "any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law." Thus it has long been clear that where a government affects the private interest of an individual, it may not proceed arbitrarily, but must observe due process of law. Wynehamer v. People, 13 N.Y. 378 (1856).
