That is an outright lie.The history of the 14th suggest there is no necessity to see the inside of a court. After its approval to the Constitution many people were banned under it that never say a day in court.
The history of the 14th was aimed directly as Confederate officeholders.
The very first section of the 14th states that this amendment cannot be used to deprive any American citizen of due process.
Section 1.
No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
