United States Court System

The United States court system is a hierarchical structure for resolving legal disputes. It consists of three main levels: 1. **District Courts** - These are the trial courts where federal cases begin, deciding facts and applying law. 2. **Circuit Courts of Appeals** - These courts review decisions from district courts, assessing if the law was applied correctly. 3. **Supreme Court** - As the highest court, it has the final say on cases, often addressing significant legal issues and interpreting the Constitution. This system ensures justice through a process of appeals, allowing for checks and balances within the judiciary.
