civil liberties cases

Civil liberties cases involve legal disputes about fundamental rights and freedoms guaranteed to individuals, often protected from government interference. These rights include free speech, privacy, religious freedom, and due process. When these rights are believed to be violated, individuals or groups may challenge government actions in court. Such cases help define the limits of governmental power and protect personal freedoms vital to a free society. Examples include cases on freedom of expression, police searches, religious practices, and voting rights, shaping how constitutional protections are applied in real-life situations.
