1 Chapter 18 The Judicial Branch
2 Creation of a National Judiciary The Framers created the national judiciary in Article III of the Constitution. There are two court systems in the United States: the national judiciary that spans the country, and the courts run by each of the 50 States.
3 The Constitution created the Supreme Court and left Congress to establish the inferior courts the lower federal courts. There are two types of federal courts: (1) constitutional courts (2) special courts.
4 Types of Federal Courts The Constitution created only the Supreme Court, giving Congress the power to create any lower, or inferior, courts as needed. What type of power is this? Expressed Implied Inherent Reserved

6 Federal Court Jurisdiction Jurisdiction is defined as the authority of a court to hear (to try and to decide) a case. Article III, Section 2 of the Constitution provides that the federal courts may hear a case because of either: 1.the subject matter or 2.the parties involved in the case.
7 Types of Jurisdiction
8 Exclusive and Concurrent Jurisdiction Some cases can be heard only in federal courts. In these cases, federal courts have Exclusive Jurisdiction. Many cases may be tried in a federal court or a State court. In such instances, the federal and State courts have Concurrent Jurisdiction
9 Original and Appellate Jurisdiction A court in which a case is first heard is said to have original jurisdiction over that case. A court that hears a case on appeal from a lower court has appellate jurisdiction over that case. The Supreme Court exercises both original and appellate jurisdiction.
10 Appointment of Judges The power to appoint judges to federal courts falls on the President. The President nominates Supreme Court justices, as well as federal court judges, who are then subject to the approval of the Senate. Most federal judges are drawn from the ranks of leading attorneys, legal scholars and law school professors, former members of Congress, and State court judges.
11 Terms and Pay of Judges Judges appointed to the constitutional courts, including the Supreme Court, are appointed for life. Judges of constitutional courts may be removed only by their own will or through impeachment. Only 13 federal judges have ever been impeached, and, of them, seven were convicted.
12 Terms and Pay of Judges Judges who sit in the special courts are appointed for terms varying from 4 to 15 years. Congress determines salaries for federal judges.
13 Court Officers Federal judges have many levels of support in order to fulfill their roles:
14 United States magistrates are appointed by each federal district court judge to handle duties ranging from issuing warrants to setting bail in federal criminal cases. Each federal district judge appoints one bankruptcy judge for that district.
15 The President nominates, and the Senate approves, a United States attorney for each federal judicial district. The President and the Senate also select a United States marshal to serve each of the district courts. Marshals act much like county sheriffs in regard to federal crimes.
16 How Federal Cases Are Appealed

18 The Supreme Court
19 Judicial Review Judicial review refers to the power of a court to determine the constitutionality of a government action. The Supreme Court first asserted its power of judicial review in the case of Marbury v. Madison (1803). The Court s decision laid the foundation for its involvement in the development of the American system of government.
20 Supreme Court Jurisdiction The Supreme Court has both original and appellate jurisdiction. The Court has original jurisdiction over cases involving two or more States and all cases brought against ambassadors or other public ministers. Most cases heard by the Court are appeals cases. The Court hears only one to two cases in which it has original jurisdiction per year.
21 How Cases Reach the Supreme Court For a case to be heard by the Court, four of nine judges must agree that it should be placed on the Court s docket.
22 Writ of Certiorari Most cases reach the Court when a party to the case asks the Court to issue a writ of certiorari, an order to a lower court to send a case record for review by the Supreme Court.
23 Certificate Cases can reach the Court by certificate when a lower court asks the Supreme Court to certify the answer to a specific question in the matter.
24 Appealing a Case to the Supreme Court

26 How the Supreme Court Operates
27 Briefs Briefs are written documents filed with the Court before oral arguments begin. Oral Arguments Once the Supreme Court accepts a case, it sets a date on which lawyers on both sides will present oral arguments. The Court in Conference The Chief Justice presides over a closeddoor conference in which justices present their views on the case at hand.
28 Opinions of the Court Once the Court finishes its conference, it reaches a decision and its opinion is written.
29 Majority Opinion The majority opinion, formally called the Opinion of the Court, announces the Court s decision in a case and its reasoning on which it is based. Precedents The majority opinions stand as precedents, or examples to be followed in similar cases as they arise in the lower courts or reach the Supreme Court.
30 Concurring Opinions Concurring opinions are sometimes authored by justices to add or emphasize a point that was not made in the majority opinion. Dissenting Opinions Dissenting opinions are often written by those justices who do not agree with the Court's majority opinion.
