The US Supreme Court decision that set forth objective standards for questioning by police after a defendant has been taken into custody was the case of Miranda v. Arizona of 1966.

The rights are now known as "Miranda Rights".

The Miranda v. Arizona case found that the Fourth Amendment made it unconstitutional to interrogate a suspect without first reminding them of their right to remain silent and speak to an attorney prior to questioning by authorities.
