I think you mean "where" not "why". From the 3rd Article of the Constitution. The Constitution only establishes the U.S. Supreme Court, but it gives the Congress the power to establish lessor federal courts. TheJudiciary Act of 1789 setup the lessor courts and has been amended many times since 1789.
