72 A Tale of Two Cases But I still don t know if I can go to a U.S. Court of Appeals in Virginia! Freddy Federal
73 What if a state has no U.S. Court of appeals? Not every state has a U.S. Court of Appeals. Often, people must travel to get to the place where their Circuit Court of Appeals usually sits. However, sometimes the Court will travel, too! The Court in most circuits will spend a few days a year in places away from its usual locations.
74 A Tale of Two Cases You are lucky, Freddy. The Court of Appeals for the 4 th Circuit is located in Richmond, Virginia. That means I can go to a U.S. Court of Appeals in Virginia! Freddy Federal
75 A Tale of Two Cases OK enough of this Court of Appeals stuff. What if I want to go to the United States Supreme Court? Freddy Federal Well
76 The Supreme Court of the United States Where is it?
77 The Supreme Court of the United States Washington, D.C. Time for word scramble #11!
78 The Supreme Court of the United States Supreme Court Motto: Have Court, Won t Travel. * The Supreme Court only sits in one location. Traveling Court Washington, D.C. * This is not the actual Supreme Court motto. Time for word scramble #12!
79 A Tale of Two Cases If Freddy wants to go to the Supreme Court, he will get to learn a fun new word: Certiorari! That s the Supreme Court s power to choose which cases it wants to hear. If the Court does not choose Freddy s case, then Freddy s case is over! Freddy Federal Say it: SUR show RAH ree Time for word scramble #13!
80 We interrupt this tale to ask a very important question: If State Court Sam wants to take his case to the Virginia Supreme Court, do you think the Court can choose whether to hear his case? Remember me?
81 And the answer is The Virginia Supreme Court gets to choose which cases it wants to hear, just like the U.S. Supreme Court does. This is true in most states. I hope they take my case!
82 A tale of THREE cases! Meet Freddy Federal s sister, Freida Federal! Freida lives in Florida. Florida
83 A tale of THREE cases! 9 th Circuit Florida is in the 11 th Circuit. 8 th Circuit 7 th Circuit 1 st Circuit 2 nd Circuit 3 rd Circuit 10 th Circuit 5 th Circuit 6 th Circuit 4 th Circuit Florida 11 th Circuit
84 A tale of THREE cases! Frieda has a federal case, too! Freddy Federal Freida Federal Virginia (4 th Circuit) Florida (11 th Circuit)
85 A tale of THREE cases! If Freddy brings his case to the 4 th Circuit Court of Appeals, and Frieda brings hers to the 11 th Circuit Court of Appeals, do you think the cases will always turn out the same? Freddy Federal Freida Federal Virginia (4 th Circuit) Florida (11 th Circuit)
86 A tale of THREE cases! Usually the results will be very similar, but not always! Sometimes two circuits will make very different decisions about the same issue. When that happens, it s called a circuit split. Virginia (4 th Circuit) Florida (11 th Circuit)
87 A tale of THREE cases! When there is a circuit split, the Supreme Court will often hear a case to resolve the difference. The Supreme Court likes it best when all the circuits agree! (4 th Circuit) (11 th Circuit) Time for word scramble #14!
88 A tale of FOUR cases! Meet State Court Sally! Sally is State Court Sam s cousin, and she lives in South Carolina. South Carolina
89 A tale of FOUR cases! Sally has a case in state court, too! State Court Sam State Court Sally Virginia South Carolina
90 A tale of FOUR cases! If Sam brings his case to the Virginia Supreme Court, and Sally brings hers to the South Carolina Supreme Court, do you think the cases will turn out the same? State Court Sam State Court Sally Virginia South Carolina
91 A tale of FOUR cases! Sometimes they might, but sometimes they will not. The Virginia state court system is totally separate from the South Carolina court system! Every state has different laws, and every state s courts are free to make their own decisions. Virginia South Carolina Time for word scramble #15!
92 Review It! Name the two court systems! This one s easy!
93 Review It! Name the two court systems! 1) State court system 2) Federal court system Got it!

105 Review It! Once Freddy starts in Hawaii s court system, will his case ever end up in a South Carolina state court? A. Yes B. No Those courts are totally separate!
