Federalism and the federal system define the basic structure of American government. There were many disagreements at the Constitutional Convention. Many delegates feared a national government that was too strong and many delegates feared that states' rights would merely continue the weak form of government under the Articles. The Constitution created a federal system of government (federalism) as a compromise. Under federalism, power is shared and divided between national and state governments. Each has specific powers unto themselves while they also share certain powers. Both levels have their own agencies and officials and directly affect the people. The Founding Fathers really had no other choice except federalism. The weak union created under the Articles would not work yet people did not want to give all the power to a national government. Federalism was the middle ground--compromise--a way to distribute authority between the states and the national government.

State courts deal with the vast majority of legal disputes, including family law, criminal cases, and contracts, while federal courts handle cases that involve federal law, constitutional issues, or disputes between states. Additionally, federal courts typically have limited jurisdiction, meaning they can only hear specific types of cases as defined by federal statutes. The structure of the two court systems also varies, with state courts having their own hierarchies and procedures while federal courts follow rules established by federal law.
