The federal court system in the United States is structured in three main tiers: the Supreme Court, appellate courts (U.S. Courts of Appeals), and trial courts (U.S. District Courts). The Supreme Court is the highest court and primarily hears cases involving significant legal or constitutional issues. Below it, the appellate courts review decisions made by the district courts, while the district courts serve as the trial courts for federal cases, handling both civil and criminal matters. This hierarchical structure allows for a systematic process of appeals and judicial review.
