What law have you broken if you are being tried in a district court?
Jacob98
Civil actions between state residents based upon contract violations or tortious conduct that occurred within the state are determined in a State District Court.
Federal law designates the location of Federal District Courts to hear cases in at least one place in every state. Most federal cases commence in district court, whether civil actions or criminal prosecutions for violations of federal law.
Before the district court can exercise its jurisdiction, cases arising under the Constitution, federal law, or treaty, or cases between citizens of different states, must also involve an interest worth more than $75,000.
District Courts can process civil actions against the United States for the recovery of any tax alleged to have been erroneously or illegally assessed or collected by the IRS.
State courts are powerless to hear bankruptcy cases, and admiralty, maritime, and prize cases, which determine rights in ships and cargo captured at sea. The Federal District Courts have original and exclusive jurisdiction of these kinds of controversies.
