Kinds of Cases
The cases which come before the courts in the US are of two main kinds: civil and criminal. Civil law involves claims for compensation (often financial) by individuals (or groups) who have allegedly suffered loss or damage through acts by others. Domestic actions (divorce, children and custody), automobile accidents and personal injury cases are the largest civil matters. Civil law has a service role and tries to secure social harmony by setting disputes between individuals or organizations. This is achieved by settlement during the course of litigation and negotiations, or by a judge after a trial.
Criminal law involves the trial and punishment of those persons who have committed crimes against society, such as theft or murder. State, local or federal authorities prosecute groups or individuals in an attempt to establish guilt, which may result in a fine, execution or imprisonment. This is the control aspect of the legal system and the criminal law protects society by punishing those who have broken social codes. The trial and any punishment are also supposed to act as deterrents to potential offenders.

Federal courts in the USA
Federal courts deal with cases which arise under the US Constitution or federal law and any disputes involving the federal government. They also hear matters involving governments or citizens of different states and thus play a part in state law. If a case in the highest state court of appeal involves a federal question, it can be appealed ultimately to the US Supreme Court. Criminal action under federal jurisdiction includes such cases as treason, destruction of government property, counterfeiting, hijacking, and narcotic violations. Civil cases include violations of other people's rights, such as damaging property, violating a contract, or making libelious statements. If found guilty, a person may be required to pay a certain amount of money, called damages, but he or she is never sent to prison. A convicted criminal, on the other hand, may be imprisoned.
Federal judges are nominated by the President, approved by the Senate and appointed for life in what amounts to a political selection. They hold office during good behaviour and can be removed from office only by impeachment (trial by the Senate for gross misconduct). This process has been very rarely used and never successfully against a Supreme Court justice.
