The federal court system consists of three main levels: District Courts, Courts of Appeals, and the Supreme Court. District Courts serve as the trial courts where cases are first heard, handling both civil and criminal matters. Courts of Appeals review decisions from the District Courts, primarily focusing on errors of law rather than factual disputes. The Supreme Court is the highest court, with the authority to make final decisions on significant legal issues, interpret the Constitution, and resolve conflicts among the lower courts.
