Context

Article III of the Constitution established the Supreme Court and authorized Congress to create lower federal courts. The federal court system now includes 94 district courts, 13 courts of appeals, and the Supreme Court. These courts are separate from state court systems, which handle most criminal and civil cases under state law.
