We already meet the requirements for 5th and 7th.

States do not because as of yet, 5’s grand jury requirement, 6’s criminal jury trial right, and 7’s civil jury trial right have not been interpreted as binding upon the states.

By default, it doesn’t render it unconstitutional. It means you can’t violate it by restricting rights.

I agree that’s the precedent, but I’m unclear where we should place that threshold of violation. Presumably somewhere on the scale of TX to NY? Perhaps… IL?
