In the US Federal System, it is called the US Court of Appeals. The US Supreme Court also has appellate jurisdiction. The courts have different names in different systems, but it is usually something similar.
The United States Supreme Court has final appellate jurisdiction for cases involving the 14th Amendment rights of a citizen. It is the highest court in the U.S. and has the authority to review decisions made by lower courts on constitutional issues.
No, very few state cases end up in the federal judicial system; in fact, the vast majority of cases are plea bargained, or resolved at the state trial or intermediate appeals level.For more information about state cases moving to federal courts, see Related Questions, below.

If a federal court only has appellate jurisdiction it can only hear appeals of cases that have been tried in lower federal courts and can't conduct its own trials.For example, the US Court of Appeals Circuit Courts have only appellate jurisdiction, primarily over cases tried in the 94 US District Courts.The Supreme Court of the United States is a federal court with appellate jurisdiction; however, it also exercises original jurisdiction over disputes between the states. The Supreme Court may review appeals from both federal and state courts, as long as the appeal contains a (preserved) federal question. This means the case must involve federal law, US treaties, or US Constitutional issues.

An APPELATE Court - a Court of Appeals has appellate jurisdiction.
When you ask an appellate court to review a case, it means that you are requesting a higher court to examine the decision made by a lower court. The purpose of appellate review is to determine if any legal errors were made during the original trial, such as misinterpretation of the law or procedural mistakes. The appellate court will review the record of the lower court proceedings and arguments presented by both parties before making a decision.
To request an appellate court to review a case, a party must file a notice of appeal within a specified time frame after the trial court's decision. The party then submits a written brief outlining the legal arguments and issues for the appellate court to consider. The appellate court will review the trial court record, listen to oral arguments, and ultimately make a decision on whether to uphold, reverse, or modify the lower court's decision.
