A Court of Claims was created by the passage of an act of Congress on February 24, 1855. It was created to preside over monetary claims against the federal government.
Congress retains the authority to do this. They also have the authority to abolish any federal court except the Supreme Court.
how did the congress create the supreme court and the lower federal courts
Article III, Section 1 of the Constitution established the Supreme Court and authorized the Congress to establish inferior courts, which would be the remainder of the federal court system.
No. Article III of the Constitution requires the federal government to establish and maintain a Supreme Court, and prevents Congress from removing individual justices except by impeachment. Congress has some control over the structure of all the federal courts, but it doesn't have the power to dissolve the US Supreme Court.
The Constitution established only one court, the Supreme Court. Article III, Section 1 provided that Congress would establish all the other federal courts as needed.
Congress first established the federal court system in the Judiciary Act of 1789. This act created the US Supreme Court, and a small number of District and Circuit Courts. Although Article III of the Constitution mandated a US Supreme Court, it was actually established by the 1789 legislation.
Congress (Legislative Branch) is vested with the authority to establish "inferior courts" and to organize the federal court system under Articles I and III of the Constitution.
Congress created the Supreme Court of the United States and the first "inferior courts" of the federal judiciary in the Judiciary Act of 1789, but has expanded or dismantled parts of the federal court system at various points in history via other Judiciary Acts. The only federal court Congress cannot abolish is the Supreme Court because it is mandated under Article III of the Constitution.
to create federal courts below the supreme court
AnswerNo. Congress established the federal court system in the Judiciary Act of 1789, and has modified the system in subsequent legislation.ExplanationThe Supreme Court is the only federal court established by the Constitution. The remaining federal courts were to be established by the Congress. Article III, Section 1, states: "The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish."
Only federal courts are established by congress.
