The judicial branch of government is made up of the court system. The Supreme Court is the highest cort in the land. Article III of the Constitution established this Court and all other Federal courts were created by Congress. Courts decide arguments about the meaning of laws, how they are applied, and whether they break the rules of the Constitution.

Our Rights in Trial

As Americans we are entitled to a fair trial before a judge and a jury. Our life, liberty, or property without the process of law. We can't be tried for the same crime twice. We can have a speedy trial opposing an impartial jury. We can call for witnesses. We can have a legal representation . We can avoid self - incrimination . We are also protected from excessive punishment .

The highest court in the United States is the Supreme Court. The Constitution doesn't say how many Supreme Court Justices there should be. There have been as few as 6 justices in the past, but since 1869 there have been 9 justices.

The President nominates all the Supreme Court members and the Senate confirms them. They hold their offices for life.

The Supreme Court doesn't have a lot of trials. What they mostly do is review cases that have been appealed from the lower courts. Not all cases that are sent to the Supreme Court are reviewed. Around 7,500 requests are sent to the Supreme Court each year and they only consider around 150 important enough to review.
