The Federal Judiciary

The Federal Judiciary is the system of courts established by the U.S. Constitution to interpret and apply federal laws. It operates independently from the executive and legislative branches of government. The Supreme Court is the highest court, followed by Courts of Appeals and District Courts. Judges are nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate. The judiciary ensures that laws are applied fairly, protects individual rights, and resolves disputes. It plays a crucial role in upholding the Constitution and maintaining the rule of law in the United States.
