Theyare just called 1st, 2nd , 3rd…ect. up to 10 amendment. We have them so that people do not get in trouble and they are the rules that everyone has to follow and they keep the country straight. For example the sixth amendment is…

In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence.

This would happen if someone went to court then they would have to follow the sixth amendment. For mor information visit http://www.socialstudiesforkids.com/wwww/us/billofrightsdef.htm
