In federal court, cases involving purely state law matters that do not involve federal questions or parties from different states (in cases lacking diversity jurisdiction) would typically not be heard. Additionally, cases that seek to enforce local ordinances or state statutes without a federal issue are outside federal jurisdiction. Personal disputes, such as family law cases or small claims, are also generally not within the purview of federal courts.
