Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
The Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit is a federal appellate court that hears appeals from lower courts in the western United States, including California, Washington, and Arizona. It reviews decisions made by district courts to determine if there were legal errors during the trials. The Ninth Circuit is one of the largest appellate courts, and its rulings can significantly influence law and policy in areas such as civil rights, immigration, and environmental regulations. Decisions made by the Ninth Circuit can be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, which is the highest court in the country.
