Constitutional Amendments – Amendment 7 – “The Right to Jury Trial in Civil Affairs” Amendment Seven to the Constitution was ratified on December 15, 1791. It protects the right for citizens to have a jury trial in federal courts with civil cases where the claim exceeds a certain dollar value.
The Seventh Amendment provides as follows: “In Suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise re-examined in any Court of the United States, than ing to the rules of the common law.”

Usually only once, although the Supreme Court of the United States may review a case a second time if it deems the case important enough. You might get a second appeal after a remand for further proceedings, if what takes place in those further proceedings warrants an appeal.
