No. There is an entire court system. Minor court issues are resolved in minor courts. If there is a controversy then it is moved up the line of courts, eventually reaching the state supreme court if there are enough controversies. If there is a challenge to the state supreme court's final decision, than it MAY be moved to the Supreme Court of the United States.
