Courts in the United States
The United States has 51 separate court systems. They include the federal court system and the courts of the 50 states. Federal courts have jurisdiction over five basic kinds of cases. They hear: (1) cases in which the United States is a party; and (2) cases involving foreign official, (3) cases with parties from different states, (4) cases involving the Constitution of the U.S. and federal laws and (5) cases involving patents, copyrights, or bankruptcies.
State courts share jurisdiction with federal courts in categories (3) and (4), and they exercise exclusive jurisdiction in all other cases. The Supreme Court of the United States is the highest appellate court for cases within federal jurisdiction.
Most states have trial courts with limited or special jurisdiction, such as justice-of-the-peace courts or juvenile courts. These courts often receive most of their financial support from local governments. Next is a level of general jurisdiction courts that hear serious cases and appeals from lower courts. Finally, each state has courts with mainly appellate jurisdiction. Every state has a supreme court, although it is not always called by that name.
There are about 7,600 judges in state courts of general jurisdiction and over 1,000 judges in state appellate courts, thousands of judges serve in special state courts. Historically, state judges were popularly elected, but increasingly states are adopting a judicial selection system in which the governor appoints judges from a list submitted by a commission composed of judges, lawyers, and representatives of the public.

Supreme Court of the United States
The Supreme Court of the United States is at the top of the American judicial system. Provisions for the establishment of the Supreme Court were made in Article III of the U.S. Constitution. The Supreme Court has original jurisdiction - that is, the authority to hear a case without that case being first heard elsewhere - over cases in which a state or a diplomat is involved (the 11th amendment, however, restricts to some extent federal jurisdiction over suits against states). The Court's appellate jurisdiction can be regulated by Congress.

Judges are appointed by the president and confirmed by the Senate. The Constitution does not stipulate the size of the Court, leaving that determination to congressional statute. The Supreme Court of the United States is unique because it serves two functions. It is, first, a court of law, operating within the forms and rituals of Anglo-Saxon legal procedure with roots going back to 12th-century England; as such it is the highest court in the land. In addition to being a court of law, the Supreme Court is a policy-making body. It is a political institution in the sense that it exerts a commanding influence on the public policies of the United States.
The U.S. judicial system is complex, with authority dispersed vertically among layers of local, state, and federal governments and horizontally among the branches of the national government. Because the entire scheme is controlled by a written constitution that enunciates general, there is a need for someone to see that the rules are interpreted and followed.
