THE PENNSYLVANIA DECLARATION OF RIGHTS
PROTECTS ALL CITIZENS IN PENNSYLVANIA

You have a RIGHT to remain silent if you are STOPPED, or QUESTIONED, or DETAINED, or ARRESTED by any governmental agent. Be courteous but say NOTHING other than to identify yourself until you speak to a lawyer.

If ANY GOVERNMENTAL AGENT reads you your rights, you should say NOTHING until you SEE A LAWYER.

The United States Constitution and the Constitution of Pennsylvania GUARANTEE you the right to the ASSISTANCE OF A LAWYER.

You have a RIGHT to a prompt arraignment and to a BAIL HEARING if you are arrested.

You have a RIGHT to refuse to consent to police entering your home unless they have an ARREST WARRANT or a SEARCH WARRANT.

You have a DUTY to submit peacefully to an arrest or to a search warrant-----THE PLACE TO FIGHT IS IN THE COURTROOM, NOT IN THE STREET.
