The opinions and decisions made by the US Supreme Court define federal law. There is no higher court and no further appeal. All local, state and federal courts are essentially bound by the decisions of the USSC. If the USSC decision is not unanimous, the majority opinion is the binding decision.
majority opinion
This is known as written opinion (the legal reasoning behind a decision). It is written from the senior justice involved in the majority (so it is also the majority opinion). Others may write concurring opinions to support a decision for different reasoning, and dissenting opinions are written if some people are against the decision.
They are both important, but the federal courts wield more power, as they can overrule a lower, state court's decision.
