Express or expressed rights

Hey, I was just wondering what the correct term is - is it express or expressed rights. The examiners report says express while the textbook says expressed. Thanks :) :)

im pretty sure its express. i just checked my justice and outcomes textbook and it says express too... might be a spelling error in your textbook, which textbook are you studying from?

I'd say it's express, although since in this context express means the exact same as expressed (as the 'express' rights are those that are 'expressed' in the constitution) it comes to the same thing.

Probably better to stick to express. Also, ask your teacher.

Some people are so silly. They dont see that the terms we use in legal are not newly coined words and that they basically mean the same thing as when used in another context. Implied, express, concurrent, exclusive, residual, etc. they all mean exactly what a person with half a brain would 'think'. The founding fathers dont just pull a big word out of their arse, words actually have some semantic relevance! Fucking hell there was a chick in my class who thought founding fathers was exclusive to legal studies. wtf? People with shit vocabularies suck dick. /rant

Not hating on you OP.

Express rights are expressed.
