United States judicial system

The United States judicial system is a framework for interpreting and applying the law. It consists of federal and state courts. At the federal level, the system includes the Supreme Court, which is the highest court, and lower federal courts. State courts handle most legal disputes, from minor cases to major crimes. Judges interpret laws, juries decide on facts, and appeals ensure fairness. The system is designed to protect rights and maintain order, emphasizing the rule of law and the principle that justice should be accessible to all individuals.
