WHAT IS THE CONSTITUTION IN THE USA?
The Constitution is the basic and supreme law of the United States. It is a document prepared by a convention of delegates from 12 of the 13 States that met in Philadelphia in 1787. The original charter established the United States as a federal union of States. The Constitution provided a Government of three independent branches. The first is the legislature, which comprises a two-house Congress consisting of a Senate, whose members are apportioned equally among the States, and a House of Representatives, whose members are apportioned among the States according to population.
The second, the executive branch, includes the President and Vice-President and all subordinate officials of the executive departments and executive agencies.
The third branch, the judiciary, consists of the Supreme Court and various subordinate Federal courts created by public law.
The 27 amendments approved since 1791 are also considered an integral part of the Constitution. These include amendments 1 through 10, known collectively as the Bill of Rights, and amendments 11 through 27, which address a wide range of subjects. At the present time, there are four amendments without ratification. These deal with child labor, titles of nobility from foreign powers, and certain States rights.

FEDERAL JUDICIARY IN THE USA
The third branch of government, in addition to the legislative (Congress) and executive (President) branches, is the federal judiciary. Its main instrument is the Supreme Court, which watches over the other two branches.
Congress has the power to fix the number of judges sitting on the Court, but it cannot change the powers given to the Supreme Court by the Constitution itself.
The Supreme Court consists of a chief justice and eight associate justices. They are nominated by the President but must be approved by the Senate. Once approved, they hold office as Supreme Court justices for life. A decision of the Supreme Court cannot be appealed to any other court. In addition to the Supreme Court, Congress has established 11 federal Courts of Appeal and, below them, 91 Federal District Courts.

The Supreme Court has direct jurisdiction in only two kinds of cases: those involving foreign diplomats and those in which a state is a party. All other cases which reach the Court are appeals from lower courts. Most of the cases involve the interpretation of the Constitution. The Supreme Court also has the "power of judicial review", that is, it has the right to declare laws and actions of the federal, state, and local governments unconstitutional.
