Essential Question of the Case
Does interrogating criminal suspects without notifying them of their right to a lawyer and their protection against self-incrimination violate the Fifth Amendment?

The Supreme Court Hears the Case
Miranda’s conviction was overturned.
Interrogations can “overbear the will”
All suspects must be given the full opportunity to exercise the “privilege against self-incrimination”.
Interrogations may be halted until an attorney arrives.
