Define and Discuss the two types of due process procedures used to enforce a rule or regulation.
Due process refers to the legal practices and procedures that must be followed in order to deprive somebody of his or her natural rights.
Procedural Due Process - refers to the steps that must be followed during a court case or similar procedure. Even when a person is being prosecuted for a crime, that person has rights that must be respected for a person to have a legal verdict brought against him or her. If a person is not given these rights, but is convicted, they can be set free in order to uphold the importance of these rights.
Substantive Due Process - refers to the ability of courts and other legislators to decide that a law violates the rights of the people. Meaning that if a law is passed that violates or deprives the rights of the people, then that law can be ruled unconstitutional and be shot down. This is enforced in order to maintain the rights of the people.

Kansas City Chiefs player Mike Vrabel was arrested for theft Monday at a casino in Indiana. He was charged with a Class D felony which is the lowest level of felony charge in Indiana. He was seen by a gaming agent taking bottles of beer from a deli within the casino without paying for them. He describes the situation as one big misunderstanding and believes that once he talks to the proper authorities the situation will be resolved.
