Best Answer

The only dogs allowed inside the Supreme Court Building are service dogs and dogs assisting law enforcement officers.

The US Supreme Court doesn't listen to testimony under its appellate jurisdiction, other than the 30 minutes of oral argument allotted each to the petitioner's and respondent's lawyers. Most of the case review is done on paper, although the Court may review a dog fighting video next Term.

Of the few cases the Supreme Court tries under original jurisdiction (as a trial court), it's hard to imagine any requiring a dog as a witness, but I suppose it's possible. I haven't been able to find reference to a case where that occurred, however.

What makes up the judicial branch?

The federal courts make up the Judicial Branch of the United States government. The Constitution established only one federal court, the Supreme Court. It left to Congress the job of creating the federal court system. Congress has created three types of federal courts. 1. District Courts--the nation is divided into 94 federal judicial districts, each with its own district court. These are the courts where cases are tried. 2. Courts of Appeals. The District Courts are divided into 12 regions, called circuits. Each circuit has its own Court of Appeals. There is also a Federal Circuit which covers the entire nation. If a person looses a case in the district court that person can appeal the case to the court of appeals. 3 The Supreme Court. The Supreme Court is the highest of the federal courts. Cases from the court of appeals in each circuit and from the state supreme courts can be appealed to the Supreme Court.
