      The correct answer is D. sometimes be applied to the states by the Court.

      Selective incorporation is the legal doctrine used by the Supreme Court to ensure that certain protections in the Bill of Rights are applied to the states through the Fourteenth Amendment’s Due Process Clause. This means that not all rights are automatically applied to the states, but rather, the Court decides on a case-by-case basis which rights are incorporated.
