Answer #1

They both deal with the rights of the people to have trials by juries. The 6th amendment strictly deals with criminal prosecutions, and prevents the state from denying speedy and public trials, as well as protecting the right to counsel and having witnesses confront the accused. The 7th deals with civil trials, and protects the rights of the people to bring legal action against a civil violation.
