Arizona's trial court system includes Superior Courts, Justice Courts, Municipal Courts, and Magistrate Courts.
Superior Courts have jurisdiction over all civil and criminal cases. Each county in Arizona has at least one Superior Court. Civil cases heard by Superior Courts include divorce, property cases, probate, estate, municipal ordinance legality, insolvency proceedings, and claims over $10,000. For claims of $5,001- $10,000, the Superior Courts share jurisdiction with the Justice Courts. The types of criminal cases handled by Superior Courts include felonies and some misdemeanors. Superior Courts also have a special panel, called the Tax Court, which handles cases involving the legality of a tax.

What is the difference between a county supreme court and a regular county court?
(in the US) There is no such distinction. There are only STATE Supreme Courts (one per state) and the U.S. Supreme Court. EXCEPT in New York State, where each county outside of New York City has both a County Court and a Supreme Court (and also a Family Court and a Surrogate's Court). In most counties, the Supreme Court hears civil cases and the County Court hears civil cases, but this can vary a bit by county. See the related links for more info. While in most states the state Supreme Court is the highest state court and hears appeals from lower courts such as County Courts, the highest state court in New York is called the Court of Appeals.
Is Commissioners' Court the judicial and executive body of a county in Texas?
Whether a Commissioner's Court has judicial duties in addition to its executive duties depends on the particular county. Each county in Texas has a Commissioner's Court that serves as the executive body of the county. The Commissioner's Court is headed by a County Judge, who is the chief executive of a county. Additionally, in counties without County Courts at Law, Commissioners' Courts (also known as Constitutional County Courts) have far-reaching judicial duties, including original jurisdiction in civil actions between $200 and $10,000, some misdemeanors, probate matters, and juvenile matters, and appeals from Justice and Municipal courts. In counties with one or more County Court at Law, the Commissioner's Court may retain some judicial jurisdiction, but in practicality, the bulk of its judicial duties are transferred to the County Courts at Law. Within a county there are also often District Courts, Justice Courts, and Municipal Courts, each with their own judicial jurisdiction. For a directory of Texas Courts organized by county, see the Texas Courts Guide related link. For a description of how jurisdiction is broken down between different courts in a particular county, see the Texas Trial Court Jurisdiction By County related link.

What was the decision of the Supreme Court case Dartmouth v Woodward?
The ruling of that court was that the college was a public institution and therefore subject to oversight by the state government as defined in the legislative acts of 1816. The court that heard the case prior to the U.S. Supreme Court was the Superior Court of New Hampshire (sometimes referred to as the state Supreme Court). The case was not heard there as an appeal; but because the defendant in the case, university Secretary-Treasurer Woodward, was also the Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas of Grafton County, the court of origin. The case was transferred to the Superior Court on agreement of both sides. Source: Private Interest and Public Gain: the Dartmuth College Case, 1819. Chapter 4. Answer: The Marshall Court stuck down the state laws as unconstitutional.
