The US Supreme Court is an Article III (constitutional) court, and the highest appellate court for federal question jurisdiction, or cases involving issues related to the US Constitution, federal law, or treaties of the United States.

The Supreme Court also has exclusive original jurisdiction (is the only trial court) for disputes between the states.
