This article should be deleted and merged into the existing subtopic on the sixth amendment's article. Rlove ( talk) 14:50, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
This amendment may have originally been intended to preserve the right to challenge witnesses to a duel as an alternative to court trial. However, this was never legally tested in the context of the time and society which passed the amendment. Within ever changing social rules dueling quickly incorporated a gentlemen's right to refuse - though that was often taken as an admission of guilt. The accused was often acquitted in early disputed trials based on public knowledge of such refusals to duel -- thus it was to the accused advantage to let refusals to duel stand. Dueling quickly lost favor as too aristocratic in the early 1800s and was eventually prohibited as if not entitled under the amended Constitution. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.23.124.142 ( talk) 07:31, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

Currently it is very US specific. I would like to know how this is handled in other countries. Thanks, Bernburgerin ( talk) 07:45, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
There is currently a loud debate at the national level regarding whether or not President Trump has a constitutional right to meet his accuser, the whistleblower who remains anonymous. https://www.cnn.com/2019/11/06/politics/sixth-amendment-require-whistle-blower-to-face-donald-trump-fact-check/index.html https://www.npr.org/2019/10/01/766176669/legal-experts-say-the-right-to-confront-accusers-does-not-apply-to-impeachment Shouldn't this article make some reference to this? I came here looking for information and didn't find much to help me. Marcusreese ( talk) 15:55, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
