Arizona Court System

The Arizona court system is structured into several levels. At the top is the Arizona Supreme Court, which oversees legal standards and rules. Below are the Arizona Court of Appeals, reviewing cases from lower courts. The trial courts include Superior Courts, handling most civil and criminal cases, family law, and juvenile matters, and Justice Courts, which deal with smaller civil disputes and misdemeanor criminal cases. The system ensures justice through checks and balances, with courts interpreting laws, resolving disputes, and upholding legal rights across the state.
