how does the u.s. court system compare to court systems in other countries

Most developed countries have a hierarchical court system in which all courts are subordinate to a central supreme court. The United States has two separate court systems, federal and state; also, each state is independent from every other and is free within constitutional limits to make its own laws and administer its own system of justice.
1. it has separate “Supreme” Courts for civil matters and criminal matters
The Philippine Supreme Court is composed of a Chief Justice and 14 Associate Justices. The Chief Justice is the head of the judiciary and presides over court sessions, while the Associate Justices assist in hearing cases and making decisions. Justices are appointed by the President of the Philippines and must meet specific qualifications, including being a member of the Philippine Bar. The Court plays a crucial role in interpreting laws and ensuring justice in the Philippine legal system.
The Philippine Criminal justice System comprises five pillars, namely: police, prosecution, court, corrections and community. But in other countries it has only 4, like US. What they don't include is the prosecution. The responsibility of prosecution is absorbed by the police. So, the process itself is fast because if the police after analyzing the complaints and if they find that there is a probable cause then it will elevated now to the court for the hearing of the case, unlike in the Philippines it will go a long process. So that's the disadvantage of it.
"High Court" is a proper noun, as it refers to a specific court system in various countries.
The Chief Justice of the Philippine Supreme Court is currently Reynato Puno, who was appointed on 8th December, 2006.
It may differ depending on the jurisdiction or court system, or even the circumstance, but it is customarily the responsibility of the Sheriff's Office to serve court orders.
