Randall, 357 U.S. 513 (1958), is a decision of the Supreme Court of the United States which, along with its companion cases Prince v. City and County of San Francisco and First Unitarian Church v. Los Angeles (separately decided), held that a loyalty oath requirement for seeking a property tax exemption violated the procedural due process rights of applicants who refused to sign the oath under the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution because it placed the burden of proof to show that their speech was not criminal on the applicants, rather than the state.<ref name="Anastaplo-1986">Template:Cite journal</ref>
