it is a dual court system. There are 2 state courts and federal courts
In the US, there is only one federal court system.
The two separate court systems functioning in the US are the federal court system and the state court systems. The federal court system handles cases that involve federal laws, the US Constitution, or disputes between different states. The state court systems, on the other hand, handle cases that involve state laws and disputes within the state.
In the US, the entire federal judicial system is under the US Supreme Court. Each state and territory has an independent court system. Those systems are independent of the US Supreme Court, but are required to follow the Supreme Court.
The Federal Court Systems
There are the "State Court Systems" and the "Federal Court System." if you are referring to the two types of law practiced in court, there is "Civil" Law and "Criminal" Law.
Although law professionals will tell you it is a separate system, it is not. The US Supreme court has ruled that these systems are separate in so much as they are bound by the State constitution, and the Federal constitutions as well as the rulings of the US Supreme Court. State courts cannot divert from a Federal Court ruling; if they do the US Federal Court system will overturn the ruling.
