	court system in the United States: The Federal Court System
		According to Article III of the Constitution, “The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish.” In accordance with this directive, the federal judiciary is divided into three main levels.
		Cases handled by the federal district courts include those relating to alleged violations of the Constitution or other federal laws, maritime disputes, cases directly involving a state or the federal government, and cases in which foreign governments, citizens of foreign countries, or citizens of two or more different states are involved.
		Established by Congress in 1891, the court of appeals system is composed of 11 judicial circuits throughout the 50 states plus one in the District of Columbia.

	governpub.com: Courts>>Supreme Court of the United States
		The Supreme Court was established by the Constitution of the United States, which was implemented in 1789; under the Judiciary Act of 1789, the Court was to be composed of six members—though the number of justices has been nine for almost all of its history, this number is set by Congress, not the Constitution.
		Thus, for example, the Court between 1969 and 1986 is referred to as the "Burger Court" (after former Chief Justice Warren E. Burger) and the Court between 1986 and 2005 is referred to as the "Rehnquist Court" (after the late Chief Justice William Rehnquist).
		The ruling of the Court is embodied in the "opinion of the Court," which represents the views of a majority of the Justices.

	United States Courts of Appeals - dKosopedia

	United States court of appeals - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		There currently are thirteen United States courts of appeals, although there are other tribunals (such as the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces, which hears appeals in court-martial cases) that have “Court of Appeals” in their titles.
		Although the courts of appeals are frequently referred to as “circuit courts”, they should not be confused with the historical United States circuit courts, which existed from 1789 to 1911 and were primarily trial courts.
		Historically, certain classes of cases held a right of automatic appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States; that is, one of the parties to the case could appeal a decision of a court of appeals and the Supreme Court had to accept the case.

	FEDERAL COURT SYSTEM: UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
		The U.S. District Court is the Court of General Trial Jurisdiction in the Federal system: the vast majority of Federal civil and criminal cases are, therefore, first heard in District Court.
		Appeal from a decision of the District Court is usually had to the U.S. Court of Appeals, which is the Intermediate Appellate Court in the Federal system (although, under extraordinary circumstances, an expedited appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court [thus, skipping the U.S. Court of Appeals altogether] is quite possible).
		In most Federal cases which come to be placed on its docket, the U.S. Supreme Court is hearing a further appeal from a U.S. Court of Appeals which itself has already ruled on an appeal from a U.S. District Court determination.
