state courts system

State courts are part of a state's judicial system that handles legal issues within that state. They resolve cases involving crimes, disputes between individuals or organizations, family matters, and property issues. The system typically includes trial courts, where cases are first heard, and appellate courts that review decisions for errors. Higher courts, like the state supreme court, have the final say on state legal interpretations. Overall, state courts ensure laws are correctly applied and justice is maintained within the state's jurisdiction.
