Appellate Cases from US Court of Appeals Circuit Courts
The US Supreme Court primarily hears appellate cases involving questions of federal or constitutional law. Most cases arise from the 13 U.S. Court of Appeals Circuits, although the Court also reviews cases involving federal constitutional and legislative issues on appeal from state supreme courts, and on very rare occasions may review cases directly from the District courts, bypassing the Circuit courts altogether.
