Federal courts can take cases of offenders who cross state lines while committing crimes, civil suites against states, civil suites between states, violations of civil rights cases, cases where the outcome is appealed by the defendant or any case that really catches their interest (for the Supreme Court)
Federal courts have jurisdiction over cases that involve federal law. There are also a few jurisdiction issues that could bring a state law case into federal court.

The Federal Grand Jury tends to focus on cases that are very important legally in that they could set a precedent. They also look at cases that haver been through other courts and are being appealed.
Under the Constitution, the federal courts have jurisdiction over a number of kinds of suits involving state citizens. Since Dred Scott's case involved citizens of different states, the chief justice could have said that free blacks in states that considered them citizens could bring certain cases into federal courts.
Federal Court
The first level of Federal Courts is the US District Courts, which are courts of original jurisdiction and conduct both criminal and civil trials.The second level is the Appelate Courts which do NOT conduct trials but only hear appeals of trials and verdicts of the US district Courts.The third and highest level of the court system is the US Supreme Court which also does not conduct trials and which is the highest court in the land. It could loosely be termed the "super-appelate" court and whose decision is final in ALL rulings and/or cases having to with Constitutional interpretation.
There is no "relationship." They are totally separate from one another. State courts are charged with the responsibility of interpreting and ruling on laws promulgated by their state's legislature, and exercising appeal authority over the lower courts of their particular state. State courts do NOT enforce ANY Federal Laws. Federal Courts are charged with the responsibilty of interpreting and ruling on Federal Laws. The only time State court matters come before them would be if a state court matter was appealed to the Federal Circuit because of a potential Constitutional issue.
I think at first there were only local courts but then if one local person had a problem with a man of another city, neither the court of first man nor the court of second man's city could hear it because both disagree with the ruling that a court make for another city's person. To solve this they made state level courts. Some time later a case came up in which a man from one state filed a law suite for a man from another state. The same problem that we had with the local courts happens again here and both disagree with the ruling that both of those state's courts make. At last to solve this, they made federal courts to hear that kind of case in which two different states are involved. It's not the only kind of case that federal courts hear but it one of those types of cases that federal courts may hear. Hope you got it
Could you please clarify which Florida court you are referring to? Florida has various types of courts, including circuit courts, county courts, and appellate courts, each serving different functions and handling different types of cases. If you're asking about differences between these courts or specific cases within them, please provide more context so I can give you a precise answer.
In the USA that would fall into the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts, assuming the issue is one of enforceability and not merely licensing, which could be handled in a state court.
