There are many differences within the judicial branch. The simplest in the United States is the Federal Criminal Court system. There is the Circuit Court, which is the court of original jurisdiction, or trial court. Then there is the District Court of Appeal. That court reviews the work of the trial court. The United States Supreme Court is above the District Courts of Appeal. Most states follow a similar 3 tier pattern for criminal cases. The Federal Government has created other courts for special purposes. There are patent courts for hearing disputes about copyrights and patents. There are bankruptcy courts. Various states create different courts. Some have separate courts for small claims. Others have special probate courts. Others have special courts for juvenile cases. Generally, in the United States the three tier pattern prevails except that the courts of original jurisdiction can vary greatly.

Yes, all of the branches can check the other two branches. The legislative can check the executive by overruling a veto with a 2/3 vote. It can also remove a President through impeachment.
