All of them. All states follow a three-tier system similar to the one used in the federal courts, but with names determined by the individual states.
The three tiers help guarantee parties receive appropriate procedural due process:
- Trial Court (Federal: US District Courts)
- Intermediate Appellate (Federal: US Court of Appeals Circuit Courts)
- Final Appellate Court (Federal: Supreme Court of the United States)
