| Summary | "Constitution of the State of North Carolina and Copy of the Act of the General Assembly, Entitled An Act to Amend the Constitution of the State of North Carolina" is a historical document printed in the early 20th century. This work serves as an authoritative compilation of the Constitution of North Carolina, alongside the amendments proposed during the special session of 1913. The document extensively covers the structure and principles of governance within the state, reflecting foundational legal principles and the political framework of North Carolina at the time. The opening of the document presents a preamble that expresses gratitude for civil liberties and emphasizes the like-mindedness of its citizens in pursuing life, liberty, and happiness. It lays out a declaration of rights, asserting that all men are created equal and that political power is derived from the people. Key sections highlight citizens' rights regarding political participation, the separation of governmental powers, the right to a fair trial, and protections against excessive punishment, among others. This foundational constitutional text underscores the democratic ideals and legal obligations that inform the governance of North Carolina. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
