Article III Courts

Yes. The United States has a dual court system that consists of both federal courts and state courts because the federal government and state governments are separate entities.Federal courts generally handle matters related to federal laws, US treaties and the US Constitution.Each state is governed by federal laws, but also has an independent government with its own constitution, laws and local ordinances, and the right to enforce them. The state court system processes cases that arise under their jurisdiction (authority) and ensures defendants and litigants receive due process under the state statutes and constitution, as well as under the US Constitution. The federal courts don't have a right to hear these cases unless they also involve federal or US constitutional law.yes. The Constitution gives Congress the power to create whatever courts inferior to the Supreme Court it thinks are needed. States also have the power through their constitutions to create 3-branch governments having jurisdiction only within a single state, one of the branches being courts.

No. Federal District Courts have jurisdiction to hear trials. Appeals must go to the appropriate appellate court.
Trial by jury is a right in the lower courts that does not apply in appeals courts or the Supreme Court. The jury makes findings of fact and fact is no longer in issue on appeal.
The judicial system was established by the Constitution. It consists of the Supreme Court, 12 circuit courts, or courts of appeal, 91 district courts, and includes special courts such as the Claims Court, the Tax Court, and the Court of Veterans Appeals (renamed the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims in 1999). The federal courts are involved in performing a two-fold task. They perform statutory construction which means they interpret the meaning of laws and administrative rules and regulations. For example, when a person uses certain offensive language on the radio waves, is he exercising his right of free speech or is he violating local obscenity laws? The courts make decisions on cases such as this every week

Federal courts are courts of limited jurisdiction. That means, their power to hear cases is deliniated by the Constitution. If a case falls outside of the requirements set forth in Article III of the Constitution, a Federal court cannot hear the case. The three "requirements" are: Jurisdiction (is the court permitted to hear the case), Standing (do the parties have a right to bring the claim to the court) and Controversy (there must be a dispute to be litigated). Now, these are the very basic requirements. Congress has the authority to further define each of these elements for the Federal courts, as well as, the Federal court's themselves. On the other hand, state courts are courts of general jurisdiction. This means a matter can always be brought before a state court. Whether or not the matter can remain in state court is another question.
Federal courts can "check" the other branches of the federal government and of state governments by
